WhoDunit - AI game development on steroids

Published 2023-10-25
WhoDunit is a proof-of-concept AI-powered detective role-playing game. I used AI for basically everything: Architecture, design, coding, debugging, story generation, image generation, UI styling, etc. All characters in the game are AI-roleplayed. Even the admin page is an AI powered data scientist :)

In this video I explain how the game works, how I built it, and some things I learned along the way.

Try it at whodunit.kniberg.com (you will need an openAI API key)

Here is an article about the game: blog.crisp.se/2023/08/26/henrikkniberg/whodunit-ai…

    I never thought AI could be used in such a way! Amazing!
  • @2911Delta
    Very impressive use cases and integration. Thanks for sharing!
  • @ThinkWithGames
    Awesome game! ChatGPT really does speed up productivity, and makes tons of things possible that weren't before! Maybe I'll try to make a game based on communicating with an AI like you showed
  • @TheBlueJona
    That is really nice, I'm looking forward to see more games coming up with AI to create stories and adventures how the player wants to be it. Infinite possibilities.

    I’ve been thinking about attempting to make something like this for a while but haven’t had the time yet. I really appreciate these kinds of videos, it’s fantastic to see this kind of thing realized.

    Can you guys give me more channels like this? It doesn't even need to necessarily be about gpt out even coding. I just want really awesome and creative channels that explain things clearly
  • @eriklenh
    Awesome, close to no code but not yet. Can you share a bit more information on the technical setup you used? Which languages, where did you store the repository etc. I want to get a feeling on how much understanding and experience of programming one still needs. Many thanks
  • Fantastisk POC Henrik! Detta har potentialen att revolutionera spelutvecklingen, tänk om skulle integrera detta sätt att generera innehåll och karaktärer på i spel som Skyrim, Fallout mf, man kommer att fastna i spelvärlden och aldrig vilja sluta spela! Interaktionen med spelet, dess handling och karaktärer kommer att öka exponentiellt!
  • Very cool ! even I am trying to make fun RPG along the same lines using generative Ai , would def want to give this a shot !

    You should've added a courtroom to the game. And AI should've played the roles of her lawyer and the judge, and the player provides the evidence and tries to convince the judge that she is the perpetrator

    Great job, would love to see the code for this
