About

GerdQuest started as a personal experiment: I wanted to learn what it actually takes to collaborate with AI to build something real. Rather than just chatting with it, I used Claude as a pair programmer — writing tests, designing systems, debugging, and shipping features — to see how far AI-assisted development could go on a project I genuinely cared about.

The game itself is a browser-based idle RPG with cloud saves, a renown system, and a full dungeon loop — built entirely through that process. It's been a crash course in knowing what to ask, when to push back, and how to stay in the driver's seat while letting AI handle the heavy lifting.

Shout out to minmaxia for Clickpocalypse — the browser idle RPG that got me into the genre.
