Manager 11 is a football management game Rye Smith first dreamed up as a teenager and kept returning to for years, until Claude made it real. This is the honest story of how one founder used AI to build a complex, living game from vision to shipped product, covering the UI/UX decisions, the technical engine underneath, and what building with Claude actually feels like day to day.

Demos and office hours run all day. Drop by for a demo between sessions. Sign up in advance for office hours. All times in Japan Standard Time (JST).

A note on language. Sessions run primarily in English with some in Japanese (marked on the agenda), and live simultaneous interpretation is available in both directions throughout the event. Office hours are held in English.
