However, program correctness does not ensure an enjoyable experience for players. We present Recursive Game Creator, an experience-oriented harness to advance agentic game development from rough game prototypes into entertaining games. Recursive Game Creator organizes recursive development around four components: Designer, Builder, Player, and Reviewer. The Designer translates user instructions and Reviewer's feedback into detailed plans. The Builder turns these plans into candidate games. The coding-native Player creates and executes reusable policies through programmatic interfaces to efficiently collect diverse gameplay trajectories, mitigating evaluation bias caused by slow GUI-based collection. The Reviewer uses carefully designed trajectory-based metrics to induce player preferences, integrating with visual evidence and explicit textual preferences to evaluate games against game-specific criteria. Finally, the Reviewer accepts the better version and provides improvement reviews for the next round, closing the recursive loop. Our method achieves state-of-the-art overall performance of 77.89 on GameCraft-Bench. On GameASG-Bench, it achieves a strict task success rate of 53.2%, a 34.1% improvement over the same-model baseline, and the highest mean runtime-check pass rate at 93.4% among compared methods. A user study shows longer playtime and higher ratings. Code is coming soon.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/8lOVNnuwhrA3rxrDMv7Osu4j_t1-jORooO6NfGcQhcw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81Zjg1/YzRhODczMDU4MmE4/OGMwN2FiNDlmYzI2/MDliMi5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
