Cosmic Voyager Deluxe (Browser Based, Free)

Hi everyone! It all started when I was just testing out Claude's new AI called Sonnet 3.5 and I've noticed that it was much more capable to understand my requests and fulfill them with a higher success rate than GPT4-o. That being given, I've started out trying out their API. It was impressing me too, so I've decided to write myself a custom Python script (btw, using Claude Sonnet 3.5 lol) in order to make a software that basically gives the entire code every time, so even me, without any knowledge in game development could create anything with it... The result - 8 hours of time instructing the bot on what to do and I have a fully working game.

It's called Cosmic Voyager Deluxe.

Lets let the Claude AI explain what the game is about lol:

Cosmic Voyager Deluxe is a space-themed arcade game that combines fast-paced action with strategic gameplay.

Here's what makes it special:

  1. Dynamic Challenges: Face an array of obstacles and enemies that increase in difficulty as you progress. Can you survive the meteor showers and outsmart the pursuing enemy ships?

  2. Power-Up System: Collect various power-ups like invincibility, speed boost, and shooting abilities to enhance your spaceship and overcome challenging situations.

  3. Upgrade Mechanics: Use collected stardust to upgrade your ship's capabilities, including speed, power-up duration, and more. Customize your ship to fit your playstyle!

  4. Achievement System: Complete various in-game challenges to unlock achievements and prove your skills as a cosmic voyager.

  5. Multiple Difficulty Levels: Choose from easy, medium, or hard difficulty settings to tailor the game to your skill level.

  6. High Score Leaderboard: Compete with other players and aim for the top spot on the leaderboard.

  7. Special Events: Experience unique events like star explosions and black holes that add an extra layer of excitement to your cosmic journey.

  8. Progressive Leveling: Gain experience points as you play, level up your character, and face increasingly challenging gameplay.

  9. Responsive Controls: Enjoy smooth, intuitive mouse-based controls that make navigating through space a breeze.

That being said, all of you can try it out at https://bongozap.com/cvd/index.html

Hope you'll like it!

Also, I will be waiting for suggestions on what and how could be improved. Let's check together where we can get this to together!

PS. I've used $15.17 in API credits to create the current game. If you'll make a donation, so I could progress with the development of this project and probably much more projects in the future, I'll be extremely thankful for that! Spent a ton of money in order to create that Python code that I've talked about in the first column. :))
