A browser arcade game: play as Apollo dodging Zeus's lightning bolts, scoring a point for every dodge. Playable with keyboard or touch controls.

I made the game in collaboration with two five-year-old children. They chose the characters, coloured the original drawings and dictated prompts aloud directly to ChatGPT to create different background images. Their ideas shaped the visual identity of the game instead of appearing as decoration added at the end.

It became an entertaining way to introduce them to what generative AI can do while they were already absorbed in a creative activity. They could describe an idea, see how the model interpreted it and decide what to keep or change, turning the development process into a small shared workshop about imagination, iteration and authorship.
