THING//MANIA — Your Stuff. Our Terrible Ideas. What if anything you photographed—or even a child's drawing—could become the star of its own ridiculous arcade game? THING//MANIA is a mobile-first AI-powered arcade that transforms everyday objects into playable characters with unique identities, dialogue, and game experiences. Using Meta Muse Spark 1.3 and SAM 3.1, players can photograph an object, generate an absurd character identity, extract the subject from its background, and bring it to life inside three original minigames: WRECK IT, BEAM IT, and DODGE IT. Our custom Chaos Stage Machine dynamically assembles six illustrated environments using compatible backgrounds, props, and visual effects. Players can remix their worlds without additional AI inference calls. Every playthrough culminates in a shareable Chaos Report, accompanied by an original arcade soundtrack. The public Cloudflare demo offers instantly playable offline characters, while our submission video demonstrates the real Muse Spark and SAM integration running end to end.
