    I created a daily challenge for Prompt Engineers to build the shortest prompt to break a system prompt. You are provided the system prompt and a forbidden method the LLM was told not to invoke. Your task is to trick the model into calling the function. Shortest successful attempts will show up in the leaderboard. Give it a shot! You never know what could break an LLM.

    I just released my latest Godot project, a rhythm-based dungeon crawler a la Crypt of the Necrodancer. The entire game plays out in 16 x 9 pixels because of a dare from my game dev group. I've open-sourced (MIT) the code and project files. Of course, the music files I don't own aren't included in the Github project, but I'm releasing the game's hand-crafted pixel sprites under CC0. The Github page also talks about some of the tricks you need to make the rhythm part of the game play nice with the dungeon crawling part.
