How it's made
One fan, with AI tools
Matchnight is made by one football fan, who designs the game and plays every build. The code, the art and the game's text are written with Claude, an AI from Anthropic. Most of the game's sound and music, and the commentator's voice, are made with ElevenLabs, and the pictures of the big moments (in the highlights show and the season's comic pages) and the Story Mode poster with Canva's AI. The Matchnight Theme and the songs of the coming soundtrack are made by Kevin with Suno, an AI music tool; the soundtrack's three bands were invented for the game. No AI runs inside the game itself: everything you see and hear is made, played and checked before it reaches you.
The look
Crests and trophies
Every club has a crest in its own colours, with an emblem that fits its town. Every trophy gets a plate of its own: gold, silver or bronze at home by level, diamond for the European and world club cups and platinum for the manager awards.
