๐Ÿ•น๏ธ How I Created a 3D Mobile Game Using Just ChatGPT (No Coding Skills Needed!)

๐Ÿš€ Introduction
What if I told you that you could build a 3D mobile game without writing a single line of code? Sounds impossible, right? But thanks to the power of ChatGPT, AI tools, and some clever platforms, itโ€™s now super easy to develop games even as a complete beginner.

In this post, Iโ€™ll walk you through exactly how I created a basic 3D mobile game using only ChatGPT and free tools, and how you can do it too โ€” in under 2 hours!

๐Ÿ“ฑ Why 3D Mobile Games with ChatGPT?
No programming skills required

No expensive software

No Unity or Unreal Engine needed (unless you want it)

Everything AI-assisted and cloud-based

Great for solo creators and indie devs

Perfect for Android or iOS

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Tools I Used
Tool Purpose
ChatGPT-4 For generating code, ideas, and logic
Spline / Vectary For designing 3D assets (free versions available)
GDevelop / Buildbox No-code game engines to build the game
PlayCanvas (optional) Browser-based 3D game builder
Piskel For icons and sprites (optional)
Figma UI design help
Expo Go To run the game on mobile easily

๐Ÿ”„ Step-by-Step: My 3D Game Development Process
1๏ธโƒฃ Game Idea Generation
I asked ChatGPT:

โ€œ[Give me 5 creative 3D mobile game ideas ](

)for beginners that can be made without coding.โ€

I picked one:
๐Ÿช โ€œA 3D ball-rolling game in space where the user avoids asteroids and collects energy cells.โ€

2๏ธโƒฃ Asset Generation
Then I asked:

โ€œGenerate 3D object ideas for my space-themed ball game. Include a space ball, asteroid, and power cell.โ€

Using Spline and Vectary, I created simple 3D shapes as models.

3๏ธโƒฃ Game Logic with ChatGPT
I gave ChatGPT this prompt:

โ€œWrite simple logic in GDevelop to move a ball left/right with touch and detect collision with asteroids.โ€

It returned a working no-code logic plan I implemented directly!

4๏ธโƒฃ Level Design
ChatGPT helped me brainstorm obstacles, difficulty scaling, and even suggested background music.

5๏ธโƒฃ Testing on Mobile
Using Expo Go or Buildboxโ€™s export option, I played the game right on my Android device โ€” no need to install anything heavy.

๐ŸŽฎ Final Game Preview
A clean 3D ball game in space, running smoothly on mobile with responsive touch controls. Designed completely with AI help.
