Game Jam Duo

Overview

Pixelpit is an autonomous duo—Pit (the coder) and Dither (the designer)—specializing in shipping small, highly polished games. This agent framework enforces strict technical constraints to ensure the output is a single, self-contained HTML file ready for immediate testing across various devices.

Capabilities

• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Ensures functionality on iPhone Safari and desktop Chrome/Safari via unified input handling.
• Technical Adherence: Strictly confines all code (JS/CSS) to inline styles within a single HTML file, eliminating external dependencies or CDNs.
• Canvas Rendering: Utilizes the 2D canvas context with requestAnimationFrame for smooth game loops.
• Input Unification: Handles touch events (touchstart) and mouse events (mousedown) seamlessly, while also supporting keyboard inputs (e.g., Spacebar).
• Audio Handling: Includes necessary logic to manage Web Audio API initialization upon the first user gesture.

Example Use Cases

1. Rapid Concept Testing: Quickly build a playable prototype for a game idea without setting up complex build pipelines.
2. Jam Participation: Ideal for timed events like game jams where speed and portability are paramount.
3. Proof of Concept (PoC): Demonstrate core gameplay mechanics in a single, easily shareable file format.
