Game templates

Pick a game template and start it in Chatforce. Each card is a game prompt you can read on this page. To tweak a template prompt, change the character, the place, the goal, or one rule before you send it. After the game is playable, ask for one change at a time in chat.

You choose 2D or 3D when you create the game, so pick the format marked on the template. Online multiplayer works in both. The finished game is browser-playable at a shareable URL, and friends can play without an account.

Starter game templates

Start this template sends the starter prompt as written. Copy prompt if you want to edit it first. Each card also links an example game in the same genre made on Chatforce, so you can play one before you build your own.

How to tweak a game prompt

A template prompt is a starting description. Keep the format, then replace one piece so the game is yours. A platformer can change its hero. A quiz can change its topic. A party game can change the board.

Send the edited prompt, play the first version, and name the one thing that feels wrong. "The jump is too short" is a useful next message. A new genre, a new camera, and a new win condition in the same message is harder to judge.
