It's an idea which I had for ages and I also bought the domain a while ago already. Right Siders is a new tiny game project. It's about walking on the right side, literally. Implemented with the tech I recently evaluated for the 
CS2D Map Viewer: Rust and Macroquad.
You can play now on RightSiders.de.
It should work on all modern browsers and even on Android devices. Theoretically it should also work on iPhone/iPad but mobile Safari comes with some ugly restrictions like not allowing full screen. Installing it as a web app might help but I can't tell for sure because I don't own any Apple hardware and couldn't test much.
The part which probably many people are going to hate: Most of the code was written by AI. Graphics however are handmade. Background: I got 3 months of Gemini Pro for free and I wanted to try what I can do with it. Overall it worked quite well. On one hand AI managed to do difficult and complex things quite efficiently but on the other hand it sometimes needed multiple attempts to make seemingly easy changes happen.
The code is open source and available at GitHub. So feel free to mess around with it.
A short Q&A:
Are there plans to extend this game?
Not right now. I may decide to do so later but for now I'll focus on Stranded III again.
Can you add/change XYZ?
See previous question and answer. Feedback and ideas are always welcome though!
For how long did you work on this?
It took ~3 weeks. I only worked on this on the weekend and in the evening. Not every day and not full time. I think if you work full time on it and have unlimited AI access, you could create such a game in like 3 days.
Why no online highscore/leaderboard?
Unfortunately it's way too easy to manipulate and hack something like this so I won't even try.
Will you keep using AI?
Yes, it's a nice tool. I will still write most of my code myself though because I prefer having full control and fully knowing and understanding my code base. Furthermore, using AI is morally problematic in my opinion. There are legal issues because it just steals all knowledge from the web and ignores licenses and copyright.
