OpenGame game guide

Popular game types for fast prototypes

Explore game-type examples, choose the controls and goal, and write your own focused prompt for Studio.

Why it works

Turn your idea into a playable game

Prompt to playable loop

Define the goal, controls, fail state, and reward loop before you generate.

Style-consistent output

Keep palettes, UI tone, camera, and asset style stable across iterations.

Shareable web build

Use HTML5 previews for quick playtests and feedback before deeper production work.

Workflow

A compact process for building browser-game drafts

Step 1

Plan the prototype

Start with genre, platform, player goal, and the smallest playable loop.

Step 2

Generate a focused build

Send a tight prompt to Studio and keep one design direction per run.

Step 3

Playtest and iterate

Share the preview, note friction, then refine difficulty, UI, and pacing.

First playable draft

Test the core loop before polishing the art or adding systems.

Playtest feedback

Ask players to try the game and note unclear goals or controls.

HTML5 preview

Share a browser build without installation friction.

Next paths

Keep building with the generator, Studio, and playable games

FAQ

Fast answers before you build

Can I start from a prompt?

Yes. Keep the prompt scoped to one genre, one core loop, and one visual direction.

Can I share the result?

Yes. OpenGame focuses on playable HTML5 previews that are easy to test and share.

How do I improve quality?

Lock the mechanics and visual style first, then iterate on pacing, feedback, and difficulty.
