Over 20,000 of you have played this since Friday! The crazy part isn’t even this game Gemini 4 made, it’s how quickly the way in which we make games and bring our ideas to life has changed. A year ago, this would’ve taken a whole weekend of babysitting code and a ton of testing. And a little over that, getting games like Snake and Pong was impressive. For this one, last Friday, I had the idea right before a full workday, fired off an agent loop in the background with Gemini 4 Argon, and just went to work. For 2 hours, the agent worked entirely in the background, on its own: - It inspected the Tesla Roadster’s website for styles, copy, car details - Looked up references for Subway Surfers - Watched the Roadster launch on YouTube to understand how the thrusters worked - Critiqued and iterated on its own work several times - Generated music using Lyria and commentary using Gemini TTS Again, all while I was going about my workday. I wasn’t even looking at the chat, just playing the game every so often between breaks whenever the agent pinged me to check it out. In total, I spent maybe 10 minutes prompting a few quick tweaks to the controls and camera views before hitting publish in AI Studio. If you’ve been sitting on an idea in your Notes app because you didn’t have the time or didn’t know how to code it, now is the time to jump in and try building it. The way in which we work is changing in real time and it may be the most fun time to be someone with ideas. Imagine what a few more iterations of these models will look like.
