Build a Rough 3D Game in Astra from Concept Art

The author shares a workflow for creating a rough 3D game with Codex, Blender MCP, and Astra: first generate a target concept image, then continuously refine the game visuals through screenshot comparisons while maintaining 60 fps.

Prompt optimization tips

1

Specify editability

State which objects must remain separate, named and editable; otherwise a visually convincing shell may still be unusable.

2

Close the test loop

Ask the model to run the scene, inspect visible failures and repeat until concrete frame-rate, interaction and layout checks pass.

3

Stage long builds

For large worlds, split the work into districts, assemblies or milestones and approve each section before expanding scope.

Imagine It. Shape It.
