Claude Opus 5.5 Rebuilt Asteroids in Godot

For one day, my laptop belonged to AI agents. I gave them one job: rebuild the 1979 arcade classic Asteroids in 3D. Plus my whole workflow. They asked me a few questions… and then I got out of their way. Three Claude agents (a builder, a QA tester and a critic) under an orchestrator built it in 5 stages and 11 attempts. They never talk to each other, every review is kept, and two stages honestly ended as "needs manual review". Inside: rocks that break into uneven pieces instead of two equal halves, a ship that stayed dead for six minutes, 41 flying saucers that never made it across the screen, a speed test no build could pass because of the laptop itself, an alien attack at almost full volume, and the one last bug before the hand-over. ⏱ 23 hours on the clock, almost 17 hours of actual work 🔥 ~820 million tokens · ~$298 at API list prices for the build, $314 with my sound fixes (API-equivalent, not the bill) Chapters 0:00 23 hours later: this 0:23 The whole day in 30 seconds 1:04 The pipeline: an idea goes in, a game comes out 2:01 Stage 1: flight, and how the agents work 3:13 Stage 2: rocks that really break 4:50 Stage 3: respawn, saucers, self-testing 5:48 Stage 4: effects, sound and a 60 Hz surprise 7:12 Stage 5: screens, scores and one last bug 8:15 The result: time and tokens 8:45 Playing it myself 9:10 What I'd keep Built with Claude Opus 5.5 (orchestrator, builder, QA, critic) · GPT-6 Astra (concept art) · Godot 4.7 · Blender 5.2 (every model generated from code) · Python (procedural sounds, later replaced) Credits Font: Saira (SIL Open Font License) Explosion sounds: nematoki, u_xg7ssi08yr, cartoon_music via Pixabay Music: "Sci-fi survival dreamscape" by freesound_community via Pixabay Concept art: GPT-6 Astra Asteroids is a trademark of Atari.
