Who makes this
Hi, I’m Heinzer. I taught myself to program as a teenager, studied maths, spent seven years as an IT consultant and have been a machine learning engineer for nine. Making games was always the hobby dream, but for a long time I lacked either the skills or the nerve to begin.
AI made the first step small enough. I tried a few things and dropped them, until I thought of making games for my children. My son loves to build and to solve puzzles, and from that came Belt & Box, now my son’s favourite game.
The game is made with AI tools: Claude Code and Codex write much of the code, ChatGPT draws and ElevenLabs makes the sounds. I steer all of it, the design, the decisions and the quality bar, with sixteen years of software and machine learning experience behind them.
