Opus 5.5 turns a US road trip into a pixel game
A developer used Claude Code and Opus 5.5 to turn a 5,285 km US crossing into the pixel game Pixel Path, with walking, swimming, horse riding and flying, released as a GitHub skill.
what Opus 5.5 is doing in motion design is f*cking insane an American developer turned a trip across the US into a pixel game with Claude Code and released it as a skill on GitHub so anyone can repeat it and make something of their own the project is called Pixel Path. the 5,285 km route stretches from the Pacific to the Atlantic roads, rivers and terrain come from OpenStreetMap and elevation data, so everything sits exactly where it does on the real map the character gets around in different ways: → walks along highways → swims across water → rides a horse across the plains → flies over the mountains buildings and landmarks are pulled from open data, while the pixel landscapes are generated by the RetroDiffusion neural net meanwhile, in his profile the author calls himself a product designer who only occasionally tries to code. the model handled all the engineering for him this used to take a whole studio of artists, cartographers and developers now all it takes is one person and a subscription repo below ↓
