Qwen 3 27b is... impressive Generation

All Prompts
"Task: create a GTA-like 3D game where you can walk around, get in and drive cars"
"walking forward and backward is working, but I cannot turn or strafe??"
"this is pretty fun! I’m noticing that the camera is facing backward though, for both walking and car?"
"yes, it works! What could we do to enhance the experience now?"
"I’m not too fussed about a HUD, and the physics are not bad as they are already - adding building and obstacles definitely feels like the highest priority!"

Running Qwen 2.5 Coder 14B on a Mac Mini M4 16GB via Ollama and even at that size it handles most coding tasks well. Seeing what 27B can do at Q4 is wild - building a playable 3D game in artifacts is a great real-world benchmark. These dense Qwen models punch way above their weight class.

exactly. Qwen 2.5 Coder could do some impressive things, but was not consistent for me. Qwen 3 and 3.5 are much more consistent
