Show HN: Building a new game everyday with AI. Day #106 Zombie Survival Training

A developer used AI (primarily Claude Opus 5) to create and publish a zombie survival training game as part of a personal challenge to build a new video game every day, reaching day 106. The game was built in about one hour using the $20/month pro subscription, and the developer has not missed a single day of publishing in over four months.

I'm using AI (mostly Claude) to create/publish a new video game every day

This is day 106, and my first stab at the zombie/survival genre. Most of the games I build with just a few prompts, but this one I used almost an entire 5-hour window on the $20/month pro subscription (in about an hour) with Opus 5 to get right with all the weapons and such. Then I go outside and touch grass for the next four hours.

Happy to answer any questions, just a little hobby project of mine I'm having lots of fun with :) I'm now well into month 4, and I haven't missed a single day of publishing a new game yet!
