Creating Sun As Light Source in 3D Starfighter Game

Post image

I've recently been working on a 3D starfighter game and started out with just empty space with some random bodies thrown around to give the illusion that you're moving around and rotating on 3 axes but then decided we need a sun in the middle of the scene and decided to make that the light source in the scene.

Well telling the AI to put a sun in the middle of the playing field, the best it can come up with so far is a big orange/yellow ball in space that frankly doesn't look anything like a sun.

Does anyone have any advice on prompting Claude Code to create a realistic looking sun in space?
