Game Studio
An agentic game-development platform. Agents handle design, implementation, and iteration of game projects — moving from idea to a playable build with a human directing rather than hand-coding every system.

Daming Zhang. building agentic game studios
I lead the TikTok LIVE Revenue team, and on the side I'm building a platform where AI agents do the game development — from concept to playable build.
II — About
Engineer, team lead, product builder — happiest when a system can be inspected, corrected, and trusted.
By day I run the LIVE Revenue engineering team at TikTok: heavy traffic, real-time systems, and the reliability problems that only show up at scale.
Outside of that, most of my energy goes into Game Studio — an agent-native pipeline for building games, where a human directs and agents do the hands-on work.

What I'm working on
Two threads right now: scaling LIVE Revenue at TikTok, and building the tooling I wish existed for game development.

Leading the engineering team behind live monetisation. Heavy traffic, real-time systems, and the kind of reliability problems that only show up at scale.

Experiments
Generative media pipelines, agent tooling, and small tools that scratch an itch. Mostly things I wanted and couldn't find.
