Cybieverse

Inspiration

I wanted a way to increase engagement in my iOS AI companion app that is currently in soft launch. I have a small number of users and had a dream of adding a series of "experiences" in the app that feature the main mascot, Cybie.

What it does

The Cybieverse is a collection of mini-games and experiences I'm adding to Cybie to increase engagement and the "wow" factor of my app, and the final piece I'll add before official launch and my marketing campaign.

How we built it

Codex. I was astonished by Codex's ability to transcend the "Core" likeness of Cybie across various mini-games and handle my existing rigs, create new animations programmatically, and generated game music and soundtracks completely from code.

Challenges we ran into

On challenge was initial UI was "vibe-codey" or bland, but I was able to quickly refine and improve with rapid imagegen iteration.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

All the experiences/games look really polished and are addictive and fun.

What we learned

A lot of agentic capabilities of 5.6 Sol. And that I could create an entire submission video end to end with a single prompt, it was really crazy.

What's next for Cybieverse

More experiences! Official launch within the app in a few weeks.
