Description
Short: a game about AI, made by AI. An armored train holds the line while machines dive from the sky. The turrets aim themselves — your hands are busy catching crystals, firing reactor abilities and feeding the node tree between waves.
The Last War: Train is an arcade AA-survival game in a dieselpunk setting. The train holds station while the world scrolls past and enemies dive from above. There is no aiming: the anti-air turrets fire automatically. The player runs the harvest field — falling crystals must be caught before they hit the ground; they charge the reactor and pay for upgrades.
Between waves comes SYSTEM RESTORE — a tree of 160+ nodes where crystals decide which of the train's systems gets to live: armor, fire rate, the harvest field or abilities. Every mission ends with a wave boss; every biome ends with a big one.
The route runs through ten biomes, each with its own enemies, weather and pressure axis. Between runs there is the depot: platforms, wagons, guns, modules and trophy cores assemble into your own fortress on rails. Runs are free — no energy, no timers.
Key Features

- 10 biomes with their own enemies, bosses and weather mechanics
- Mission bosses and biome bosses
- Depot: platforms, wagons, guns, modules and trophy cores — build your own consist
- Runs are free: no energy gate, no wait timers
- Portrait mode, one-finger controls; the campaign is playable offline
- Production: 100% AI — code, art, audio, balance and localization into 10 languages

How the game was made
The Last War: Train is a game about artificial intelligence, made by artificial intelligence. Specifically:
- Code. GDScript on Godot 4.6: the combat loop, economy, save system, shop and UI. Every commit in the repository was authored by AI agents.
- Art. Diffusion models (Leonardo.ai and a local ComfyUI on a single RTX 4090): biome backdrops, enemies, bosses, key art, UI icons. Background removal is ML segmentation, not chroma key.
- Audio. Stable Audio Open — sound effects and two music tracks, generated locally. A few short UI ticks stayed procedural: the model handles sub-0.3s transients poorly.
- Balance. Wave curves, the economy and the 160+ node tree were tuned by simulator runs rather than by feel.
- Text. Story, logbook, interface strings and localization into 10 languages.
What AI did not do. The Godot engine, the fonts and third-party SDKs (ads, analytics, billing) are ordinary external components. The promo video is not generated footage — it is a real engine capture: AI video was tried and rejected, it did not match the game's style. A human sets the task, signs off on the work and checks the build on a device.
