Publishing an AI-Built Game: Eleven Runners, Two CPU Architectures, Four Hidden Bugs

Runbook · Public release & CI proof · Part 4

SANYALnet Labs Ludo AI Arena rendered on an Arm64 Linux GitHub Actions runner with no display attached: the full cross-shaped board, four AI player cards, the die, and a scrolling event log.
A complete game played on an Arm64 Linux cloud build machine with no monitor, no desktop and nobody watching. The application drew this picture of itself.

Publishing an AI-Built Game: Eleven Runners, Two CPU Architectures, Four Hidden Bugs

In Part 3 of this series, ChatDev 2.0 built SANYALnet Labs Ludo AI Arena—a C#/.NET 10/Avalonia desktop game in which four autonomous AI players play a full match by themselves. Five free models failed at it; one paid DeepSeek run costing about a dollar shipped it. The post ended with the game running on four machines in my house, and a build report from the agents declaring everything green. Both of those statements were true. Neither of them meant the software was actually finished.

Build a Cross-Platform Ludo Game with ChatDev 2.0: Free AI Models Fail, a $1 DeepSeek Run Ships It

Runbook · Multi-agent application build · Part 3

The finished game: four autonomous AI players, a live event log of model-chosen moves, and a die that flashes without shoving the board around.

Building a Desktop Game with ChatDev 2.0: When Free AI Models Fail, and a One-Dollar DeepSeek Run Ships It

In Part 2 of this series, ChatDev 2.0 took a detailed specification and built a Live News Debate Wall—a self-contained Python web service that turned business headlines into a fictional AI-parody debate. That project answered a friendly question: can the virtual software company build a real application from a real spec? It could. This time the question was less friendly.
