This game was made via a video that described the game, where Gemini 2.5 created the game.
Demo
SuperWorld AI
Super World is a turn-based (real-time with pauses) strategy game where the goal is world domination! Players start with a home territory and must strategically build up their forces, conquer neutral lands, and ultimately defeat AI opponents to control the entire map.
This game was inspired by and iteratively developed with a creative team of 4th and 5th graders who provided the core concepts, gameplay ideas, and continuous feedback. The HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code was generated and refined with the assistance of Google\'s Gemini 2.5 Pro AI model.
