He argues that typical AI coding evaluations are hype-driven and that games provide a more authentic test of both visuals and mechanics. His method uses a multi-model parallel workflow: Cursor (GPT-5.4) for coding, Gemini 3.1 Canvas for assets, and Claude Opus for refinements, with a focus on generating multiple variants and selecting the best.
