    From MRO@VERT/BBSESINF to All on Sat Apr 4 22:14:38 2026
    i've been messing around with ai and doing some javascript games.
    i'm not just letting ai do everything. especially since claude has been castrated lately. i cant do much without it giving me a 4 hr wait for the
    next run. it's something to do to take my mind off of work.

    here's a vidoe of some junky games i made.
    the tetris one is partially from the iniquity bbs source.
    you can do random background images.

    the scrabble game has ai opponent support, or you can just play against a person. or both. sadly i can not release that source because it's based off
    a bbs version of scrabble and i made a promise.

    last one i made was a block breaker game where you do have different powerups like a laser shooter or sticky ball or bigger ball.

    then i have a pacman clone that is gus' boneyard which is a dog who loves endy's hamburgers and he's afraid of everything. the ghosts are named after his biggest fears. he can do a poop bomb and freeze them and also he can bark and scare the ghosts to the other side of the map.

    most of my scripts are configuratble where you can change the colors, matrix size, etc. i like everything to be very configurable.

    these are on my github that i posted and i'll put more up later when they're done.

    What do you mean by "claude has been castrated lately"? And it seems if you don't want to deal with the rate limiting so much, you'd have to pay for the next tier (which jumps up to $100, unfortunately).

    In the past i did make games in baja but i assume it would run out of memory because the games would start to act strange and abort the larger they would get. I made a lord2 clone in baja and put all the screens in.

    this scrabble game is a real good one. playing AI players when nobody is around to play makes it better than the original scrabble door.

    The blockbreaker game now looks better now and does more powerups and the bouncing ball logic is better. I get artifacts sometimes and the way i personally tried to fix it causing a lot of redrawing so i'm going to have
    the ai work on it more. the ai is having trouble too, because it's an intermittant problem.

    I think i will make one script with all classic boardgames. it might be quite large though and that might cause problems.

    Last week I had an odd issue with it. I asked it to come up with a plan
    for something. I did so after opening the previous conversation on the subject.

    It came up with a plan which would have reintroduced a bug that we had
    fixed at the end of said previous conversation.

    I made a comment regarding the issue and asked it to replan.

    It messed about a bit and then came back and said that my session limit was maxed and I had to wait 4+ hours to start over.

    Considering that this was all that happened during the session and the
    reason the session maxed was because Claude boo-booed, I was not real
    thrilled.

    I fired up Opencode and let it work on it instead.
