Well it took a little longer than a week 🤣. I was waiting for someone to really step up to the mark and hit a home run. ⚾️ Of course @Wes Spitz was the first to make it on to the Progress Wall with an early version of his Neon Invader game. However not satisfied with that version he released a new version that is simply amazing and a great example of what's possible with AI (Claude in this case). It doesn't just look better, it plays much better with additional mechanics, power-ups, waves etc. So congratulations @Wes Spitz , you are the clear winner of Weekly Challenge 1 🥇🏆🎉 ! Let me know which game you would like, they are listed here. To try out the game for yourselves, check out this post. It contains both versions so you can see the progression.

First! 🥇 @Wes Spitz is officially the first to make it on to the Progress Wall ! 2 great games, Neon Clicker and Neon Invader. Are these in the same universe as Neopolis2075 ? Will some of them end up as mini games in his game? Only Wes knows. You can make it on to the Progress Wall too with Mini Quests. Just 5 minutes spent and you have a major win you can be proud of. What are you waiting for?

Here's a summary of the latest amazing projects and their creators: @Sascha Ahlers - Tower Survivor , TD Game Maker and Trump Idle Tycoon - Totally killing it! @Nick Hough - Lemonade Lab - Worlds best dad?! @Wes Spitz - Project Neopolis2075 - Worlds best teacher?! @Michael Berry - Moonbase - Lots of potential! @Taylor Spears - Arcane Survivor - The Sekai expert! @Trevor Eures - Legacies Of Valzon - WoW v2?! @Anna Stoilova - Outmine - Worlds best game trailer?! Your game not listed here? let me know and I'll add you to the next post!

I love the variety of games that people want to create. We have: @Arno Koopman who wants to create a word solitaire game, @Edward Vaughan who wants to create a 2D fighting game, @Vindon Alexander who wants to create a text-based RPG, @Michael Berry who wants to create edutainment games, @Vincenzo P who wants to create a roguelite/rpg game, @Razan Madani who wants to create the next Assassin's Creed, @Leonard Harding who wants to create Boxing Manager, @Jon Gerton who wants to create a short session, casual game, @T. Dusa who wants to create a 2D pixel-art platformer and @Amir Ghodrat who wants to create a futuristic FPS. So... how do you start to flesh out your game ideas? Wouldn't it be great if you had a game designer who you could just chat to any time of the day, who knew loads about game design but is happy to take on board any ideas you may have. Well luckily you have three. They are called Biggy-G, Jemy-No and SantaClaude. You want to say this to them: "You are an expert game designer with years of experience creating the most popular games, like: [list some games you like] . I want you to be my co-designer and help me flesh out my new game idea" I warn you, the enthusiasm that this will generate is infectious, those three really love designing games! Let me know how you get on!

Please help @Sascha Ahlers out by sending him an email he can add to his list of testers! Original link here
