Action adventure template: build it step by step
Build one room, one tool, one locked gap. Open it, walk through, and stop. Do not add a combat combo until the tool is the reason you moved. The adventure game maker describes this shape without the metroidvania map.

The sentence you type
"Make an action adventure. Start with one room, one tool and one lock the tool opens."
The brief the AI writes back
First playable: one room, one tool and one lock the tool opens. The loop to get right: explore, find a tool, open a path, fight.
Build, play, adjust
Compare with the games that define the genre: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Nintendo, 2017), Tunic (Andrew Shouldice and Finji, 2022) and Okami (Clover Studio, 2006).
What makes it finished
The tool opens a path you could see, the room can be failed, and you can try the tool again from the start.
