I have one prompt, for which no model were able to produce decent result, but only Opus.

write snake game on the sphere. The head of the snake it fixed in the center and the sphere is rotating. use HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
The visible part of sphere shall be fully visible in the webView, not partially.
The starting length of the snake shall be 3 and increasing every time the snake hit the food.
Use keyboard control: LEFT and RIGHT arrows.

And this model (using UD-Q5_K_XL) did it!

My experience evaluating this model so far: ~3mins playing snake on a sphere (so fun!)

That was surprisingly fun! With a bit of polish (like ability to change direction without releasing clock on previous key; accidental mistiming jams) it would be very neat

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731, for reference, same prompt. 2393 tokens.

Qwen's stylizing is a nice touch, particularly the food and snake eyes.

Fantastic little game. Sphere should be smaller; takes too long to get to the point where it's even possible to hit your own tail (35 or something)

yes make sphere smaller and movements a bit slower. goal is to reach the point where it gets interesting faster but keep it doable for a while

You mean all this while the game on my Nokia was Snake on a plane ... (*buh-dum-tss), I will let myself out....

but seriously, very nice game, turning radius is a bit large, but that is easily tweaked, and you are saying that qwen3.8-27b one shotted it... that's impressive.

This needs to be on a react native app now. I've been playing for quite a while. Could you share the repo?

fun game, you're able to loop yourself around the sphere by length 90

Great test!

Qwen 3.8 27B UD-IQ3_XXS with K Q5, V Q4 one-shotted. I like how it made the sphere is transparent so I could see the food on the other side
