A browser-based game called Taipei GTA has attracted 1.2 million concurrent players in just three days, according to Taiwan TV news reports. Developed by AICodeWith using $10,000 worth of tokens, the free online game allows users to explore zones based on famous Taipei areas like Ximending and Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall. Players can experience a free-roaming environment featuring neon signage, night markets, and various city elements similar to the GTA series, though it uses low-poly models and simple lighting.<\/p>\n

The game is hosted on the Vercel cloud platform and includes 93 missions for a more structured experience. While developers have not made an official announcement, they are currently asking the community about future development directions through media reports. The project serves as a demo for the AICodeWith unified developer platform, which provides access to multiple AI models including DeepSeek and Qwen via prepaid tokens.<\/p>\n

Performance tests indicate the game runs smoothly even on devices with integrated graphics, achieving over 100 frames per second on a laptop’s Radeon 890M processor. Mark Tyson of Tom’s Hardware noted that while the visual style resembles early-2000s retrogaming, the gameplay offers a distinct environment compared to titles like San Andreas. The game remains under development and is available at https:\/\/taipei-gta.vercel.app\/.<\/p>\n
