The Game
KitSniff is a daily puzzle game where you identify mystery ingredients based on their culinary properties: colour, flavour, food group, and type. Guess the ingredient, unlock recipes, fill your pantry, and explore culinary origins from around the world.
The Story
In May 2025, someone with no software development experience had an idea for an ingredient-guessing game and decided to see what happens trying to launch an entire web application through AI-assisted development.
It all started on a Raspberry Pi serving friends and family, and graduated to proper cloud hosting in February 2026.
The Method
Disclaimer: every single line of code was generated by AI. Although it's not as simple as "push button, receive app".
- Human: Product vision, creative direction, content creation, quality bar
- AI: Translating requirements into well-organised, secure and maintainable working code, and offering some creative direction of its own
Human designs the menu and runs the kitchen, AI cooks up the recipes. Both essential, neither can function in isolation.
What the Human Did
Conceived every feature. Curated 250+ ingredients with (mostly) accurate properties. Designed 50+ (somewhat) achievable and (partially) culinary-aligned recipes. Tested everything personally. Runs the whole operation.
