Something else worth mentioning is the role AI played in development. Desaulniers has publicly described using Claude to help port the game, and has published an unusually thorough account of how the port was created, including the technical problems encountered and the methods used to identify and resolve them. Given how frequently AI-assisted development comes up in homebrew discussions lately, I think that transparency is worth acknowledging. The project’s source code and development history are also publicly available for anyone interested in examining the work.
I appreciate the honesty at least.

All I did was scan for AI then I saw claud haha. Seems a lot of these breakthroughs lately have been with AI. Bout the only good thing it’s been doing lately.

Machine-executable code is cold structure within an unreadable mess. LLMs are really good at sorting that out.

It’s not as impressive when they get help with AI. I would argue impressing people is the entire point with this sort of thing. Using AI defeats the purpose.
