From Prompt to Adventures:Creating Games with LLMs and Restate Durable Functions


Tired of fighting timeouts and failures when your AI services need to work together? Discover how Restate helped us transform a simple prompt into an interactive adventure game with dynamic storylines, custom images, and voice narration—all without the infrastructure headaches.

In our specific case, we wrote our entire service in Python, making it easy to iterate and experiment with our application logic and deployed the GPU intensive portions to Modal so that we could run them efficiently. While we opted for this simpler approach, Restate also offers a ctx.awakeable method that will suspend execution until an external event resolves the awakeable, allowing the function to remain inactive without consuming resources and resume immediately upon task completion. Whether you’re building with Python, TypeScript, Go, Java, Kotlin, or Rust, Restate provides the tools needed to focus on what matters - creating compelling user experiences rather than wrestling with infrastructure.
