    I asked for a theme park in space with aliens, but it just loaded a generic(?) park, with 5 different themed "islands", but none of them are space themed. Do I need an account to actually create a prompt?

      Hi! Thanks for trying it! Sometimes the agent can get tripped up if it doesn't have a component that matches the theme. For example, I can tell you I don't have a rocketship asset or alien asset, so it might default to something to generic in replacement. And also we have lots of pirate assets, so then it might lean toward a pirate-theme if it sees the word "island."

      That said - I just noticed a bug making them overly generic. Fixing right now!

      Same happened to me (with my very different prompt).

    Actually pretty cool. One idea would be to take a theme park map, like what they give you at the entrance. And recreate the park using that image.

      oooh! Fun idea. I think this might actually work... if you upload an image + prompt it to make a theme park referencing the map.

    No special Bender easter egg if you request a theme park with blackjack and hookers?

      that's kind of you to write, thanks for reading. Do you like RollerCoaster Tycoon too?! Anything we can make better?

    “Build me a cool theme park” is not a very exciting prompt.

      that's fair. Thanks for your feedback!

      Perhaps more exciting: build a chocolate factory slide and river with a hot fudge river... haha
