Meta is going to let you build games with AI right on your phone
TL;DR
Meta has a new plan to get people to make games for its Horizon social platform. The company today announced two new development tools that will let you create games with AI prompts: Horizon Create, a mobile app, and Horizon Studio, a browser app that offers more granular controls. The apps will be available in early access, and interested users can sign up for a waitlist.
Nauti's Take
For small teams, distribution matters more than the prompt interface itself. First verify whether a game built with Horizon Create actually reaches relevant users on Facebook and Instagram, how much control you retain over monetization and data, and whether the export options are sufficient before investing in more complex Horizon projects.
Summary
Meta has a new plan to get people to make games for its Horizon social platform. The company today announced two new development tools that will let you create games with AI prompts: Horizon Create, a mobile app, and Horizon Studio, a browser app that offers more granular controls.
The apps will be available in early access, and interested users can sign up for a waitlist. Horizon has struggled as a platform, but Meta has a plan to give these new Horizon games significantly more reach: It's going to let published games made with Horizon Create and Horizon Studio get recommended on Facebook and Instagram, where they also will be playable.
