Claude Code helps remake 1989 DOS game into relativity simulator

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A developer has transformed a 1989 DOS game into a relativity simulator called Gravity Wars, utilizing Claude Code for nearly all of the programming. The game simulates artillery combat in curved spacetime, where gravity from planets and black holes bends missile trajectories. It features advanced elements like orbital precession near black holes, ray-traced lensing, and time dilation effects, all built with plain JavaScript and WebGL shaders for graphics. AI
