Rebuilding Classic Video Games using Prompts Only

Thijs challenged himself to rebuild one of his favorite games using AI technology. He was amazed by the fact that he built level 1 of the original Super Mario Brothers in just 20 hours with all its game mechanics and interactions, by prompting only and having the AI make all the changes.

There will be many demos displaying how to build a video game from the ground up. You will learn about reasoning models and its capabilities, GitHub Copilot Agent Mode and latest features. Besides the playful parts about building games, Thijs will show how reasoning models and agent mode helps him significantly in his daily job. Last we will enter the Boss Battle Arena and we will add features to the game live on stage. Next, Game Over?
