Octokit - One of the pioneers in text-to-game AI technology

AI technology has been advancing at the speed of light and brought in a new era of discovery and innovation. AI algorithms, capable of processing and analyzing vast amounts of data with exceptional speed and accuracy, are transforming scientific research across various fields: in genomics, in materials science, in climate science,... Additionally, AI-driven automation enhances lab efficiency, allowing scientists to focus on complex problem-solving. These advancements deepen our understanding of the natural world and facilitate practical solutions to global challenges.

Not only in science, the advancement of AI technology, particularly in the realm of generated media, has been groundbreaking. AI models nowadays have made it possible to create highly realistic images, videos, and audio that are nearly indistinguishable from real-world media. These advancements have revolutionized industries such as entertainment, advertising, and art. AI can now produce digital artwork, compose music, generate human-like voices,.. You could easily find online AI text-to-image such as MidJourney, DALL-E and DALL-E 2. Stable Diffusion, Imagen,.. or text-to-video tools such as Runway ML, Synthesia or even text-to-audio like Suno AI. But there is one field that has just been touched upon only recently, that is game development.
There are various companies that are trying to come up with AI text-to-game technologies, and one of the notable pioneers is Octokit. Octokit is a web-based no-code game builder developed by Marvy Co., and recently, they have just announced their first ever AI text-to-game model named OctoAI. Marvy Co. is a technology company based in Vietnam that specializes in the development, production, and implementation of AR/VR and minigame projects for various companies and corporations.
The most notable feature of Octokit is their first ever AI text-to-game technology called OctoAI that allows users to create a game with a simple prompt under 20 words in just 10 minutes. The module will base on Octokit’s premade game templates and AI-generated assets to automatically build a game for users. OctoAI can generate a vast variety of gameplay with different art styles. This groundbreaking technology has opened a new approach to game development, allowing a simple but still powerful approach for people to be creative with video games.

How to create a game with OctoAI?

Step 1: Access octokit.co. Go to My Kit => Create a Product => AI Generator

Step 2: At OctoAI Hub Screen, you will see a Prompt Input section. This is where to type in your prompt for the game. The ideal length for your prompt is between 15 - 50 words. To utilize OctoAI better, your prompt should consist of these elements:

• Character description: A brief description of your character’s appearance (clothes, hair, special features,...)
• Objectives: What you're trying to achieve, like collecting coins or racing to the finish line.
• Game theme and rules: How you interact with the game and what you need to do to win or lose.
• Add your brand’s element or product description. If you still don’t know where to start, click on the Magic Wand icon to generate an example prompt!

Step 3: After coming up with your prompt, you can choose the desired style for your game. Then click Generate a Game, OctoAI will start generating the assets for your game. The process will take from 10-15 minutes depending on your prompt. In case you close the tab or disconnect to your Internet, OctoAI will continue doing the work and save all the progress.

After OctoAI has finished generating the assets, then ta da! Your game is completed and is able to play. For this article, I’ve made an example with the prompt: “Make a game about a cat shooting a ball to collect the fish in the ball. The background is set inside a cozy home.”
This is how my game looks like. Octokit understands the prompt well and generates the assets correctly. The game’s title “Feline Ball Collector” and home screen background are a little bit off-topic but those can be customized later.
