Can GPT-6 Luna write working Godot 4 code? 15 of 15 on the first try
By Eduardo Orellana · Updated
GPT-6 Luna passed 15 of 15 Godot 4 tasks on the first try and 15 of 15 after one fix with the test's output, each run headless on Godot 4.7.2. It missed none.
AppImage, x86_64. Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Fedora 39 or newer.
Intel or AMD Chromebook, with Linux turned on.
Every model measured on the same Godot 4 tasks, each run headless on Godot 4.7.2 at a fixed 60 frames per second.
Measured by Flockbay: the same tasks, the same checks, one fix allowed with the test output.

How the test works
Each task asks for one GDScript file with a stated API, in a fresh Godot project. GPT-6 Luna was asked through its API, the way Flockbay reaches its hosted models: the task in one request, no tools, and the whole file back in a code block. A check scene then loaded the file and drove it on Godot 4.7.2, headless, at a fixed 60 frames per second: it pressed input actions, stepped physics, waited on timers and signals, and compared the results.
When a task failed, the model got the check's output once and could fix its file. Every task touches an API that changed between Godot 3 and Godot 4, or was added since: move_and_slide and is_on_floor, FileAccess and JSON, signals, tweens, Timer nodes, PackedScene, TileMapLayer, ray queries, AStarGrid2D, AnimationLibrary, and lambdas, which capture local variables by value.
The checks themselves are tested first: each passes on a reference answer and fails on an empty script. Run on 2026-10-18.

GPT-6 Luna in Flockbay
GPT-6 Luna is a hosted model in the Flockbay app's model menu, on the Hobby plan and above. It uses the plan's hosted usage at the same rate as Auto.
It takes images, so Flockbay can show it screenshots of your game, and it has an effort setting in the composer, from quick answers to longer reasoning.
Move a CharacterBody2D with an input action: pass
The task: Write res://player.gd for Godot 4: a script for a CharacterBody2D that moves right at 200 pixels per second while the input action "ui_right" is held, and stands still otherwise.

A score label: pass
The task: Write res://score_label.gd for Godot 4: a script for a Label that shows "Score: 0" when it enters the scene, and has a method add(points: int) that adds to the score and updates the text to "Score: <total>".

Spawn on a timer, then stop: pass
The task: Write res://spawner.gd for Godot 4: a script extending Node that, once in the scene, adds a new child Node2D every 0.25 seconds, using a Timer, and stops after 4 children. It keeps the number spawned in a variable spawned_count.

Questions
- Is GPT-6 Luna good at Godot?
- On these 15 tasks it passed 15 on the first try and 15 after one fix. Each task is small and checked by running it, so the score says whether its Godot 4 code works, not how well it designs a game.
