Tripo AI turns prompts into playable 3D levels same day
The bottleneck isn't generating assets anymore, it's getting them cleanly into a live game with collisions and performance intact. This demo shows that loop collapsing into the same day: prompt an interior, turn it into a usable 3D mesh, and drop it straight into a running build.
โข Pipeline: Nano Banana image -> Tripo AI Smart Mesh (clean topology) -> texture -> export as GLB, FBX, or OBJ
โข Same-day result: assets already live, BVH collision maps baked server-side, about 9 days left in the vibejam
The key step is that Smart Mesh avoids the usual messy geometry and edge flow problems, so there's less cleanup before import. That's how it jumps from prompt to playable space with AI behavior and collisions already working.

Levelsio said the new assets were already added to the game, soldier AI was improved, and BVH collision maps were baked on the server for faster loading.
