Make your
first game.

From a one-line idea to a game you can play and share, in about ten minutes. Seven steps, in the order that works.

1. 01

   Create your account

   Enter your email and a password, accept the Terms, and press Create account & start trial. Stripe then asks for a card: nothing is charged for 7 days, and if you cancel from your Account page before then, you pay nothing. Your plan follows your account, so you can sign in from any browser.

   Start trial

2. 02

   Connect your AI

   Nectar Shield runs on your own AI account. In the studio rail, open Connect AI, pick your provider, paste your API key and press Connect. The key stays in this browser and is only sent with your own requests; your provider bills you directly for what you generate.

   • Claude · Anthropic

     writes Oracle's games

     console.anthropic.com

   • GPT · OpenAI

     writes games and makes images

     platform.openai.com

   • Grok · xAI

     writes games, makes images and video

     console.x.ai

   You need an API key, not a chat subscription — Claude Pro or ChatGPT Plus don't include API access. Create the key in your provider's console and add a little credit there. Without a key, the desks still run with the local forge and Oracle plays its built-in templates.

   Plan it with the Playbook

   Not sure what to build? Open Playbook, choose your game, engine and platforms, and run one step at a time. When a step reads right, press Send to Oracle.

   Open Playbook

4. 04

   Describe your game to Oracle

   Type what you want and press Enter or Build & play. Oracle writes a complete HTML5 game and runs it in the preview. A big game can take a minute or two.

   A prompt that works

   “A top-down space shooter. A hex-ship collects honey asteroids and dodges wasps. Arrow keys to move, Space to shoot. Three lives, score in the top-left corner, speed rises every 30 seconds. Dark background, gold and amber colours.”

   • · Say the genre: shooter, platformer, dungeon crawl…
   • · Name the controls.
   • · Give a goal and a way to lose.
   • · Describe the look in a few words.
   Open Oracle

5. 05

   Play, then refine

   Click into the preview and play: WASD or the arrow keys, Space, X. Then ask for changes in plain words and press Apply change — Oracle edits the same game:

   “Make the wasps chase the ship, and add a queen wasp at 1,000 points.”

   Restart replays the current build. New game starts over from a blank idea. One change at a time works best.

6. 06

   Make your art and sound

   The studio desks turn a prompt into files for your own projects in Phaser, Godot, Unity or anything else. Oracle draws its own graphics, so it does not use these files in its builds.

   • Auto-Sprite · Describe a character, pick walk, idle, attack or jump, then Build sprite → Download sprite sheet.
   • Text-to-Animation · Pick an action and press Animate → Export sheet .png and Phaser .json. Or switch to 3D rig → Export .glb.
   • AI Image Gen · Write a prompt, choose a style and aspect, Generate → Download. Needs OpenAI or xAI.
   • Sound Studio · Choose an effect or a music loop, Render → Download WAV.
   • True Pixel · Upload an image, Snap to pixels → Download PNG.

7. 07

   Export and share

   In Oracle, press Export: you get the whole game as a single .html file. Open it in any browser or send it to a friend. To put it on itch.io, rename it index.html, zip it and upload it as an HTML game. Every build is also saved on your Desk — press Open next to it to keep editing.
