Claude Code Buster
Your AI compiles — You shoot!
Your AI compiles — You shoot!
You are a Claude Code bot. The bugs come down in waves, one colour at a time, each harder than the last — and every colour ends with a Major Bug that shoots back. Drag to move, and that is the whole control scheme. It is free, it works offline, and a run takes a minute.
The power-ups are the joke: a bomb that flattens your code at the last second, a laser that reads your instructions and ignores them completely, missiles that pick their own targets and answer to nobody, and a copilot that autocompletes half the fight perfectly and the other half just… compiles.
The same seeded run for every player on Earth, with a score target that resets at your local midnight. Three attempts.
A weekly Top Run with tiers from Bronze to Champion, an all-time leaderboard, and a live daily board.
Play every day to build a streak. Milestones pay out shields that soak up one hit each.
Fully translated, including Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Filipino, Arabic, Japanese and more.
Beat the game — fight through every boss colour, then defeat the giant Claude-orange bug — and the bounty is yours. It has to be done inside your first ten attempts of a single run with no shields raised, and every win is confirmed against server logs.
No purchase is necessary. Subscriptions and shop items never change your odds; the bounty is won by skill alone, on the free game. Full conditions are in the app.
There is a playable web version — no download, no account. It runs in the browser on phone or desktop. Play Claude Code Buster now →
