Kasane

(Kasane is the Japanese word for layering) (Japanese theme just for vibes)

This is heavily inspired by SPLOOB by mors and Catonator so you should go and play that, and then also you should probably marvel at my hypocrisy.

The basic thought here was: I love games where things synergise and have some emergent properties. I love games where you get to pick things every few minutes. I love score attack games!

This is the first game I built in about a year, and the difference between the stuff I built with Opus 4.5 a year ago and what I can build now with Opus 5.5 is absolutely mind-blowing. I truly have not looked at a single line of the code for this game, which very much was not the case for last year’s games. In fact I don’t even know the stack. I could really, genuinely just describe the game I wanted, the gameplay I was looking for, suggest tweaks, and basically be the director of the game.

What a time to be alive. I had so much fun making this.

I used to end each of these with “All these games are incomplete and broken.” but I don’t actually know that that’s the case anymore. Wow. The future moves fast.
