Had a conversation earlier with a highly experienced game dev about what $NEURAL is building.
It’s very hard to understand for people without industry knowledge how big the gap is right now.
There are quite a few projects out there that look like they are building something in the direction of an AI game engine or AI roblox, but in reality are absolute garbage and will fade into irrelevance soon.
You can’t just take threejs, slap an editor UI on top of it and call it an engine. Especially not an actually useful one.
You can’t use any of the existing engines either (e.g godot like I saw some projects use) and think that will work out.
Before we started our work on the World Engine, we combined dozens of years of experience in the gaming industry and months of research on this particular topic to find an actual solution.
It would be insanely easy for us to spin up a threejs “engine” like some do and call it revolutionary and most people here would have believed us. I am talking less than a month of work.
But that’s not a real product. That’s shit in a fancy dress to make inexperienced people buy the token.
Instead, we are building an actual product that game devs, 3d artists and creators in general actually enjoy and use to build actual games.
1. Crossplatform (desktop, mobile, web) – most web3 projects out there already fail here.
2. Novel asset streaming – pretty sure all projects fail here.
3. Plugins to extend functionality (yes you can vibecode plugins too) – pretty sure all projects fail here as well.
4. Proper rendering – all projects fail here
5. Multiplayer editing – most projects fail here
6. AI workflows that make sense – most projects fail here as well
I could write an endless list of features and reasons why we do things the way we do, and why this is the only viable path to a production-ready AI engine experience.
But the bottom line is simple: Building an actual engine/better roblox takes year(s).
We are paying 6 digits monthly for top tier talent, and I can assure you this is not something you can vibecode in a few days/weeks.
Stay vigilant, stay focused. We have a clear vision and we know how to get there. Trust the process and together we will reach greatness eventually 🫡
