APOLLO Proof of Work — Before & After

Space Invaders

BEFORE

Click to play

What was built

Fixed grid of enemies moving left/right
Single bullet type, straight vertical
Basic rectangle collision
Simple explosion particles
3 enemy types by row position

Asteroids

AFTER APOLLO

Click to play

What APOLLO knowledge added

Screen wrapping (Phaser wrapObject pattern)
Angular velocity for spinning asteroids
Drag/deceleration for space drift feel
Jagged procedural asteroid shapes
Thrust particles + momentum-based bullets
Parallax star field reacting to velocity
CRT scanline overlay from shader data
Asteroid splitting on destruction
Invincibility respawn with blink

The Knowledge Difference

Claude built all four games with virtually no instruction beyond "aliens game" and "racecar game." Before and after — same AI, same prompt, same developer. The only variable was APOLLO's knowledge database delivered through MCP integration.

Patterns from Phaser, GameMaker, and shader code informed physics, collision, visual effects, and game feel. APOLLO didn't write the code — it provided the knowledge that made better code possible. This is what machine-learning-backed context looks like in practice.
