AI Disclosure	AI Assisted, Code My goal with this project was to learn how to program a game from scratch, without an editor or a game engine. I wanted to learn Odin and work with a minimalist library, so I chose Karl2D, which is written entirely in Odin. I used Claude as a tutor: it helped me understand my own code, explained new concepts, helped me track down bugs and suggested possible solutions. I made a point of writing the code myself and finding my own solutions. Near the end of the jam, time was running very short, so I did let Claude generate some code, mostly to get the builds ready.

actually a fun and well polished game? if you extend it a tad bit and put it on steam with some marketing… i feel this could really be the next youtube reaction content farming land, in a good way
