About Хитин
A 3D action prototype set in an entomologist's abandoned greenhouse, seen through an insect's eyes. You play a nymph, the last larva of a vanished hive: defeat a mantis and take its scythes, defeat a dragonfly and take its wings. Six part-hosts give 48 chimera builds (jump like a grasshopper and strike down with the scythes, or hover on wings and pour boiling water on enemies), and parts are swapped at moulting spots. There are five zones, from the prologue through the flowerpots, a water tray and a dark shelf under burlap to a nest under the roof, and the final boss, the Hornet Queen, assembles herself from the parts you collected but did not wear. It is played with mouse and keyboard or a gamepad. The developer, Krolicheg, writes in Russian that the whole game was conceived and made by AI, Claude Opus 5.5 (Claude Code), in 9 hours and 10 minutes of work: code, 3D models, shaders, sounds and music (orchestra and guitar), all written as code; the developer says they did not write a single line, only set tasks and played. The developer cheat keys Claude used for testing were left in the build. Made in Godot 4; a free download for Windows and macOS on itch.io, described as a short prototype.
How it was built
Partially verifiedThe developer writes (in Russian) that the whole game was conceived and made by AI, Claude Opus 5.5 (Claude Code), in 9 hours and 10 minutes of work: code, 3D models, shaders, sounds and music (orchestra and guitar), all written as code. “I did not write a single line — I only set tasks and played.” The page says the developer cheat keys (F1 to F5) are the ones Claude used to test the game and were left in because the build is exactly the one shown in the developer's video. The textures are CC0 from ambientCG, and the music uses BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover, Surge XT and the Black And Green Guitars samples.
Made in Godot 4 by Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5) in 9 hours and 10 minutes of work, per the developer, who set the tasks and played; the models, shaders, sound and music were also produced as code. Textures come from ambientCG (CC0), and the music is rendered with BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover, the Surge XT synthesiser and Black And Green Guitars samples.

“Я не написал ни строчки — только ставил задачи и играл.”Verification notes: Gameplay, controls, credits and AI use from the developer's Russian-language itch.io page, re-read on 6 Nov 2026 (published 17 Oct 2026, 12:08 UTC; updated 19 Oct 2026, 19:27 UTC; status In development; Windows and macOS; genre Action; made with Godot; files Khitin_Windows.zip and Khitin_macOS.zip). The English title Khitin is taken from the file names. The developer says they wrote no code; no AI code percentage is recorded because the page gives no figure. The page's link to the developer's video is still a placeholder (“[ССЫЛКА НА РОЛИК]”), so the video was not checked. Developer: the itch.io account Krolicheg writes in the first person; the page names the label ArteMakes Games with a YouTube and Telegram channel @ARTEMAKES_GAMES; no real name, location or team size is given. The developer says the Mac version was not tested by them. The desktop builds were not downloaded, so they were not checked for calls to AI services; the page describes no AI features in the game. In-game languages were not checked; the page is in Russian. itch.io shows no rating. The game was not played.
