AI investor Matt Shumer demonstrates prompting technique for building games and novels.
Matt Shumer published a guide on running Gauntlet Loops, a prompting method that sets strict performance bars, splits work, and avoids self-grading. The technique, already used to create multiple games hosted on somethingbig.ai, is shown in a live workbench run drafting an original horror novel against The Shining as the quality benchmark. Community replies from AI creators highlight standout game examples and praise the approach for versatile projects beyond gaming.

Guide to running Guantlet Loops:
You can use Gauntlet Loops for more than just games! Here's a LIVE run, where I have a Gauntlet Loop writing a full horror novel. You can watch it run live here: Let's see what comes out!
Huge credit to @Ryancampbell for prompting this incredible game into existence.
@mattshumer_ damn this looks incredible
@mattshumer_ so a "gauntlet loop" is just cloning a game by verifying it against the game you're cloning it against? That's your idea?
