Description
Gauntlet Loop provides a prompting framework for indie game developers and designers to prototype mechanics by benchmarking them against existing titles. It employs a cycle of fan-out generation, harsh criticism, and blind A/B testing to refine game builds until they meet a specific quality bar.
The process integrates image generation for textures and 3D mesh creation to feed the game build, focusing on rapid iteration of a single aim prompt rather than building complex state machines or scoring frameworks.
