> what works best with AI-coding: a strong and thorough idea of what you want, broken up into hundreds of smaller problems

A technique that works well for me is to get the AI to one-shot the basic functionality or gameplay, and then build on top of that with many iterations.

The one-shot should be immediately impressive, if not then ditch it and try again with an amended prompt until you get something good to build on.
