Partial While an indie 2D browser adventure game can be prototyped with AI, generating cohesive game assets, balanced conservation mechanics, and polished gameplay requires substantial game design and asset pipeline work.
What it would actually take: Building a complete web game requires a canvas/WebGL game engine (like Phaser, PixiJS, or Godot exported to WebAssembly) with state management, sprite animations, and custom mini-games. The primary challenge lies in custom pixel/vector art creation, audio engineering, narrative scripting, and continuous performance optimization across mobile and desktop browsers.
