The big win?.AI doesn't just write the story — it calls Java functions to alter game state. LLMs are finally doing things, not just saying them.

Couldn’t generate ASCII art (again 😅) — we ran out of time. But it's next on the list!.

New in this session:.🎮 Health + mana bar logic.🎮 AI-driven success/failure outcomes.🎮 Inventory system (partially wired).☠️ The player can now lose!.

Had to upgrade to Spring AI 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT due to function call exceptions. ✅ That fixed it. ✅ Function calls are now routed cleanly to Ollama (LLaMA 3.2).

🚨 Just unlocked Spring AI → Ollama function calling in session 3 of my LLM game dev series. All built in Java, live-coded. Let me break it down 🧵.

⏰Part 3 of my AI-powered Java RPG goes live today:.⚔️ Game mechanics.🧠 LLM memory + logic.🎨 First ASCII scenes.💬 Player choices with real impact. Join me if you want to learn & build alongside: . #Java #AItools #LiveDev #TextAdventure.

Why use Java for an AI game?.✅ Full control.✅ Local-first (Ollama).✅ Spring + Vaadin = powerful combo.Join me Saturday as we push function calling and LLMs to create real game logic. #SpringBoot #JavaDev #Ollama #Vaadin

🎥 Tried making a promo video for my live-coding stream on YouTube (🤓) using #GoogleAI's #Veo2 — but honestly, it didn’t quite meet expectations. Check it out and let me know your thoughts. How could i improve this? 👀 . #AI #LiveCoding #GenAI

What story twists should happen in an AI-driven text adventure?.🧙 A cursed sword?.🐉 A talking tree?.🐺 Betrayal from your pet wolf?.Drop your wildest game ideas – they might end up in Saturday’s build!.#GameDesign #IndieDev #LLM #Storytelling

Figured out how to schedule a live session, so you can already join or keep updated! 🤓. . #LiveCoding #JavaDev #AIDev #DevStream #AIInteractive #FantasyCoding #CodeAndConsequence.

We're finally bringing ASCII art to life on Saturday's stream!.Think retro-style scenes, fully generated by the AI. Fantasy + LLMs + Java. Any ideas for scenes you'd love to see in ASCII?.#AsciiArt #TextGame #LLM #AIinJava

RT @laytoun: What started as a joke from @starbuxman is now live 😅Spotify support has been added to music maven plugin, so you can listen r….

This week on stream:.Using @SpringAI function calling to update health, mana, and inventory in-game!.All local, with Ollama + Java. Ever implemented RPG mechanics using LLMs?.#JavaDeveloper #AI #Ollama #GameDev

Part 3 of my local AI-powered text RPG in Java is coming this Saturday!.We’re adding:.- Function calling for HP/Mana/Inventory.- ASCII art.- Win/lose conditions.Got ideas for cool story turns or wild items? Hit me 👇.#Java #SpringAI #Vaadin #LiveCoding

Finally we can use @SpotifyDE for good! 😅 Thanks @laytoun 🎸. @RichardFichtner it's obvious, that the playlist from the repo is not yours! Not a single country song 😂.

Was it as much as I hoped for?.Not quite. But we’re laying a strong foundation. And the feedback + live viewers? Amazing 🙏.Next stream is Saturday. Come build with me!.#GameDev #AItools #LiveDev #DevStreamer.

It’s still early days—.but it’s turning into something you can actually play!.Think old-school text RPG meets local LLM. Next goal: ASCII art + stats + magic. #TextGame #RetroGaming #JavaGames.

✅ Built a cleaner UI using Vaadin layouts.✅ Added a basic game prompt.✅ Let players choose their hero name via dialog.✅ Gave the AI memory so the game actually remembers stuff.#JavaDeveloper #AI #Ollama #LLM #VaadinUI.

Part 2 of my local AI text adventure (in pure Java) is done!.📼Video: .💻Repository: . Here’s what we built this time 👇.#Java #SpringAI #Vaadin #LiveCoding.
