The models are pretty decent at building simple Three.js/Phaser games, but if you want to work with Unity/Unreal/Godot you're going to need a MCP or other tool to get them to work with the engine's tooling/context. I just so happen to work on one for Unity https://bezi.com

I will say, while I think the current models are very impressive with generating code for most game mechanics. They are still terrible at spatial awareness. Gemini Pro 3.1 is showing some promise here, the latest Opus/Sonnet models are...ok. But there's still a lot left to be desired. You also still really need to know how to make games both creatively and technically to pull off prompting a game into existence.

So are you going to vibecode your way to the next SimCity / Civ without knowing some game dev? Probably not right now and I think that's for the best. People want games that are creative and unique. But a passionate hobbyist who has never made a game, knows some programming, and has a vision for a great game now has an amazing tool set to build their dream game and that's pretty cool!

- Mention or pin game objects, scripts, prefabs, etc. with fast autocomplete.

- Understand complex scene hierarchy, component relationships, and other Unity-specific context that other tools simply don't have or spend more tokens to understand.

- Full project-wide RAG. Bezi indexes your entire project and understands your assets.

- Web search, Unity docs search, and more.

I have a background in the XR space and work on a number of Unity projects as a hobby. I'm biased but, I'm having a ton of fun using Bezi in my free time to prototype and build out ideas. I've built character controllers and gameplay mechanics a number of times and being able to skip the boilerplate and get to the fun part is a game changer.

We're building this for individuals and studios who want to use AI to speed up their development without the hassle of manually crafting their context in other tools but also for people like myself who are working on side-projects or indie games in their free time.

If you've ever wanted to build a game but didn't know where to start, Bezi is a great way to learn game dev. Let me know if you have any feedback or questions!

2. Agreed, we erred on the side of caution for this release and made a bunch of public rooms since our per-room cap isn't super high while were still doing P2P WebRTC networking. We may dial this back to just one public room per environment.

3. It is! That first box where you select your homeserver can be typed in and you can put your own homeserver in there. Third Room is the first Matrix client using OpenID Connect which will avoid the whole issue entering your password on someone else's site, but we're still not quite at the point where just anyone can add it to their own homeserver. Hopefully very soon!

Seamless interoperability is what the "metaverse" is all about and we want to work with people who want that as well.

Also, more importantly we don't believe in "a metaverse" in the same way we don't say "an internet". There's only one "metaverse". Open and interoperable should be baked into the definition. Matrix can play one part of it.

To clear things up a bit. Our tiny team isn't taking away from the development going on with the rest of the Matrix ecosystem. In fact, we're helping build out a bunch of really important pieces. When I started I helped build out Element Call and our full mesh VoIP stack that's now being built into Element natively. Our team has also been helping with Hydrogen's VoIP implementation and OpenID Connect authentication. As we progress further we'll be able to help in scaling up VoIP performance with our cascading SFU architecture.

We've been working on this project since February and we're pretty excited with the progress so far! We believe Matrix has the opportunity to play a critical role in this emerging space and can do so without distracting from its core mission of enabling open, decentralized messaging for everyone.
