How much of the code do you think is written by AI? Just curious as I do video game development and just recently started heavily using opencode agentic development with the Flash models (instead of essentially using zero AI assistance before). I actually really like the workflow and find it helps speed things up a hair and in general allow faster testing/tooling builds/etc. which are super helpful to make a game feel really good.

Kind of curious how other people are using agentic code tools for game dev!

In general the coding aspect of creating this game is very minor compared to the other aspects. I'd say around 5% of my time went to programming even before AI was a thing. Now with AI it's even less. I'd say around 10-20% of the code is AI right now. I'm mostly past the heavy programming stuff (which I mostly did before AI was as good as it is today). I do use AI a lot to create custom tool windows in Unity and to solve bugs in 3rd party packages and libraries, it's very helpful there.
