Ekin Arca, a solo developer in Istanbul who publishes as Whale Development Studios, has posted a behind-the-scenes page on the game's website showing how he and a team of AI agents added three enemies to the free demo of Iron Curtain Call, his Godot 4.7 cartoon-noir shooter, in one day: October 14, 2026.
The page walks through four stages using files from the game's repository. The agents' first attempts at the Poster Boy, the Rubber Stamp and the Paperboy were too crude, so Arca had them work from concept art instead. They drew two concepts per enemy in Higgsfield, styled after renders of robots already in the game, and suggested which parts of each to keep; he signed off on the choices.
The agents then modeled each enemy in Blender as a Python script that generates the meshes, and checked it against the concept in the game's own toon renderer. In Arca's overview, models start as rough versions made through Blender MCP before becoming scripts, and he says 310 scripts produce the game's 807 models. He made the animation reference videos in Higgsfield, and Godot applies a toon shader plus a full-screen ink outline pass.
The game's Steam AI disclosure covers the rest: all voice lines were generated with ElevenLabs, as were some music cues and sound effects; the remaining score was "composed as code by AI coding agents"; and menu art and newsreel clips came from Higgsfield. Arca says he wrote the story, dialogue and jokes, designed every level, and tests every build. The disclosure says no AI runs during play.
Why it matters: Most AI game claims stop at a tool list. This one shows each handoff and the points where a person still makes the call, such as picking a concept, judging a model or deciding if a level is fun. Building models from scripts is an approach other Godot developers could try.
Caveat: The model and script counts, and the claim that the pipeline is otherwise autonomous, are the developer's own; AIGamer has not played the demo or seen the code, and Arca doesn't name his coding agents.
The free Mission 1 demo is on Steam for Windows, macOS and Linux, now at version 1.5.5 per the studio's November 12 Steam announcement and X post; a 60-second browser trial runs at ironcurtaincall.com/play, and the 12-chapter game is due March 11, 2027 for Windows and macOS.
