The full story
The Sword of Ghix is an 8-bit retro RPG made by a 13-year-old over the first few weeks of summer break. Bob's mum leaves on a work trip, and Bob discovers something terrifying. The young developer's stack was VS Code, Claude Code and a Godot MCP server, plus some prior programming knowledge. It's on itch.io.
