A solo developer is building a Third-Person Shooter (in 5-7 days!) where every asset was AI-generated using Atlas.
Here's early gameplay footage. When its done we'll host it so anyone can play.
If you're creating something cool and want to test out Atlas - get in touch!
From the Flux 3 character reference to a fully rigged character in Unreal Engine!
Generated the high-poly model with Tripo 3.1, then used the Blender Agent inside the workflow to bake it down to low poly. Atlas rigging tools handled the rig and animations. The fingers came out especially well!
Added cloth physics in Unreal Engine to give the generated cape mesh more movement.
Check out the full workflow in the comments.
How well does a character’s style hold up as you add detail and bring it to life?
Comparing Flux 3 and Nano Banana 2.1 in Atlas using the exact same prompt: first creating triptych character reference sheets, then animating them with the Cinematic Video node. All in one workflow 👀
We preferred the Flux 3 results in this test. Nano Banana 2.1 was faster and cheaper per image, but sometimes added extra arms or legs in the detail views and needed another try.

A great example that Atlas is not only about giving depth to 3D AI workflows but any creative AI workflow that expects high quality and consistency!
Let’s make the launch assets for my new game! Great timing with the redesign of Fortnite Discover btw. Since this is my first big experiment building a full UEFN game with AI, I'm curious to see how AI can help me here as well.
@Atlas3DAI not only has 3D workflows but also workflows for video, images and audio. They recently released a Cinematic Video node so this was a good chance to try it out!
I’m focusing on the game trailer, thumbnail formats, logo animations and short-form marketing content. First I made all the reference images that I could reuse in every workflow. Using one prompt for multiple shots in the Cinematic Video node, together with my reference images, kept everything consistent.
Then with my main thumbnail ready, it was easy to create a vertical version and two versions without the text. That saves me a lot of manual reframing.
For the logo reveal I used the Blender Agent in Atlas to create an initial mockup animation. Once I was happy with it, I used the exported MP4 as the base for the Edit Video node. With my references it created the polished final video. This process worked very well and helped me set up the animation before spending the credits on the final render.
Overall I am very happy with the results I got using Atlas. Together with gameplay recordings I have a solid set of launch assets to publish the game.
Link to the Atlas workflow is in the comments!

This is The Last Bellkeeper, winner of the first 404 Game Jam, built by @tylerdurdeth using the 404 game generator.
It’s a puzzle adventure where players carry the wind itself, using it to interact with the world and solve challenges.
The game combines strong gameplay mechanics with high visual fidelity, using 404-generated 3D assets throughout.
Its visual assets were generated with Atlas, while the music and sound were synthesized directly in code.
We plan to help participants grow and monetize what they build while creating a wider ecosystem for agentic gaming on Bittensor.
Enjoy The Last Bellkeeper 👇
Current @tripoai + Blender setup going incredibly well and no need to even leave the platform.
Some small manual steps still needed but this will become huge over the next months to allow game devs to build so much more.
Created an animated convertible car with AI!
The part that got me excited from the house experiment was watching Blender assemble everything. Initially I tried the same workflow for the car, but as you can see, assembling a bunch of separately generated parts doesn’t really give a great result here. So I went with a simpler setup.
Now @Atlas3DAI has a new Blender Node, which basically runs Blender MCP inside the workflow. This meant I didn’t have to leave the canvas.
It created the reference images, generated the high-poly Tripo 3.1 mesh, baked the low-poly version with the Blender Node, and did the full assembly of the car with the body and wheels. I could even give it images of the badges and license plate, and it created the geometry and placed everything correctly inside the node.
The convertible roof rig needed a bit more directing though. But still, I didn’t have to do any weight painting or manually place bones. With some back and forth, Astra created a working skeletal mesh for me to use. In UEFN / Unreal Engine i made everything work together with Control Rig and Level Sequencer.

got some questions about performance.
Saw a max of 500 draw calls with the house fully visible exterior and interior (compared to ~200 sky only and ~300 with UEFN landscape material).
all assets share 1 master material, that helps. It can be further optimized by re-baking more assets to sub 1k triangles + combining and maybe ISM.
Also without screen recording it stayed at 60fps. So not perfect but i think not crazy bad.
GPT-6 made GTA 6 beach house using MCP tools!
Running Astra only through Blender MCP didn’t work for me, since it was mainly using primitive shapes to build the assets.
Now, with @Atlas3DAI workflows and Tripo, that changed!
Initially, I thought Tripo P2 would be the way to go: low-poly results straight into Blender. I tried it, but I didn’t get the results I wanted. Don’t get me wrong, P2 is great and a big improvement over P1, I just wanted more detail for this project. So I ended up using Tripo 3.1.
First, I needed a good starting point. I gave Astra some concept art and YouTube links, and it generated great reference images to work with.
With Atlas workflows, I used those references to generate images for all the individual parts. Using Atlas MCP, I exported them and automatically renamed everything based on the prompts. The next step was feeding the images into Atlas Batch Composer so it could run all the 3D generations in one go.
I asked Astra to optimize the generated assets to either 5K or 1K triangles, depending on their form and size. After a few tests, Astra made the process faster and faster. I gave it all 70 high-poly assets and let it run.
Astra then took care of the whole build. It imported the optimized assets into Blender and used the reference images to start recreating the house. I only had to give it directional feedback twice and manually rescale a few things.
There were still a lot of parts, though. Each beam was a separate object, and I knew that wasn’t ideal if I wanted to export the house to UEFN or Unreal Engine.
So I asked Astra to export only the unique assets. Then, using UEFN MCP, it rebuilt everything 1:1 while reusing modular parts like beams and windows.
I really enjoyed watching it place all the pieces in UEFN, almost like watching a timelapse of the house being built!
Using @tripoai & Astra in conjunction as a batchable workflow just giving insanely good results.
People have to try out the new Atlas Blender Agent to try it 👀

Impressive what you pulled with just a few days of learning Atlas from scratch! Real amazing work!
🎥 Finally tried the new Verse camera components!
🌄 Built the entire environment using @Atlas3DAI workflows.
I've been wanting to see what first-person vehicles would feel like in UEFN. The feature is still in early access, but it's awesome that you can now hook up player cameras directly through Verse.
I gave Atlas a proper test, and everything you see here was built with their workflows. The Batch Composer worked great! I just set up an API workflow, throw in all the inputs, and it generates multiple assets in one go.
The main workflow was created using the Atlas assistant. The setup was perfect for the initial concept and generated things like the skybox, foliage, and landscape textures.
I used GPT Image 2 for reference images and mostly Tripo P1 for the 3D assets. For a few hero assets, I made a separate workflow using Tripo 3.1 with retopo and texture baking.
After that, I did a bit of cleanup in Blender and created custom collision meshes for things like the ramps. Just name the collision mesh with the UCX_ prefix and UEFN / Unreal Engine automatically uses it as the collision. Now the dirt bike launches are smooth!
Experimenting with character animation workflows for a studio producing a film in UE.
Managed to get proper fingerbones for the rig - obviously all prototype quality but quite decent for experiments.
A city with entirely unique buildings. Made with a single batched AI workflow.
Tripo 3D generation. AI fitting to realistic size bounding box.
Procedural gave you consistency but repetition.
AI was diverse but messy.
Now its diverse & consistent. Only with Atlas.
Another day another world experiment using Atlas generation pipeline inside Unreal Engine.
Again build by 1 person over 3 days.
He is using Atlas workflows and running them directly in Engine for faster placement & iteration.
