How it works

  1. Saw a Bilibili video of a Minecraft-like game made with TapTap Maker and asked for beta access
  2. Describe the gameplay in plain language and let the AI produce code, art and music
  3. Publish to TapTap in one step with in-game ads; the platform takes no cut
  4. Focus on fast, simple casual games, the kind that suit ads best

Could we copy it?

Partly copyable The tool is almost zero-barrier, but Jin estimates only about 1 in 30 creators are good. Ads only suit light casual games, and the games mostly run only on TapTap, so moving platforms means rebuilding.
