Using AI to Build an Infinite Game: Jeff Schomay
Feb 1, 2024 · 11:08
Jeff Schomay built a game with 100% AI-generated content, using OpenAI's fine-tuning to generate JSON scene definitions and Leonardo to create stylistically consistent images. He fine-tuned a model on 50 examples for about $1–$2, enabling shorter prompts and reliable JSON output. To maintain visual consistency across scenes with varied elements (people, animals, buildings), he trained multiple image models. He implemented a caching pipeline that prefetches scenes to compensate for 10–30 second generation times, ensuring a smooth player experience. The final game procedurally generates every scene and image, so each playthrough is unique.
