The sentence you type
"Make a metroidvania. Start with three rooms, one locked path and the ability that opens it."
The brief the AI writes back
First playable: three rooms, one locked path and the ability that opens it. The loop to get right: explore, hit a locked path, gain an ability, return.
Build, play, adjust
Compare with the games that define the genre: Hollow Knight (Team Cherry, 2017), Metroid Dread (MercurySteam and Nintendo, 2021) and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (Konami, 1997).
What makes it finished
A path you saw closed is open because of something you gained, and you can still get lost between the three rooms.
