I wanted to see just how powerful the new AI coding tools are, so I put them to the ultimate test. Using just a single prompt, I had OpenAI’s new GPT-5-Codex model build a complete, playable block breaker game from scratch, complete with custom graphics, audio, and game physics. But I didn’t stop there. I then used Warp, an AI powered command line, to take that game and deploy it to a brand new cloud server on Linode, all using natural language. This entire process, from a simple idea to a live, playable game on the internet, happened with almost zero human intervention. It’s an incredible look at the future of software development.
