AI tools accelerate indie game development workflow

A user is documenting their process of creating a cozy game using a workflow that heavily relies on AI tools. The workflow involves using Claude Opus 4.6 for brainstorming and prompt generation, Gemini for creating 2D images, Meshy AI for converting these images into 3D models, and then Claude again for rigging and refining these models in Blender before testing in Unity. The user is also experimenting with different Claude versions for specific tasks, noting Opus 4.6's creativity for brainstorming and Opus 4.8 for coding. AI
