Hey guys,
So, a week later and ChatGPT is still helping me build Scarred Steel. At this point, I don’t even think I can be called an indie developer anymore because AI is doing all the code for me — and sometimes breaking everything in the process.
This is my first ever game and I’ve decided to build it with AI because I have zero coding experience.
It’s been a mix of fun struggles and endless errors, but also exciting progress along the way.
In this devlog, you’ll see:
Endless back-and-forth with AI just to fix simple UI panels
Progress toward finishing the core skeleton of the game and adding dialogue systems
Funny (and painful) moments where whole panels just vanish before my eyes

If you’d like to support the game, don’t forget to add Scarred Steel to your wishlist & support me on YouTube:

Thanks again for checking this out.
I’m looking forward to sharing progress with you each week as I work toward the first demo release!
