I used to run a flash games website (SWF files) years ago. I've made a few games of my own. I'm also an avid gamer and love to play games of all kinds. I'm also a software engineer, and a few days ago I decided I wanted to run a games website again. So I bought the domain gamevibe.us and with the help of Claude I've been vibe-coding one video game every day since. Happy to answer questions, take feedback, etc Other games made in the past week (sometimes with a single AI prompt, sometimes multiple): https://gamevibe.us/20-gem-cascade https://gamevibe.us/19-flappy-bird https://gamevibe.us/18-hexfield https://gamevibe.us/17-connect-four https://gamevibe.us/16-klondike-solitaire https://gamevibe.us/15-emoji-mahjong All the games have scoring to inspire a little competition, but it's mostly just to "scratch that itch" of making games again, even if AI is doing all the work. The majority of games I don't give any details at all and the AI just fills in all the blanks. I've spent a lot more time prompting to do the overall architecture of the site and the scoring system built around it than I do for the games themselves, Claude just "knows what to do". | ||||||||

Great to see persistence. I miss those good old SWF days, had a right amount of animation and programmable logic; until the vulnerabilities start to hit and SVG/HTML5 became mainstream. Out of curiosity, in the name of science, are you also making the source (and/or steps taken) available for the folks to learn and understand the internals? | ||||||||
