People are using AI apps to vibe code video games

Not satisfied with what video game creators are providing? Thanks to generative AI apps, you’re only a few prompts away from vibe coding your very own game.
While you can’t make an effortless version of Animal Crossing or Red Dead Redemption, apps like Meta’s Pocket let people create smaller interactive games that are published to a scrollable feed. There’s also Roblox’s AI app, Build, which gives users the power to build (get it?) basic games on their phones.
A gateway to more vibe coding? There’s a steep learning curve to vibe coding new software, but “a small, browser-based game is a great way to get a taste of vibe coding,” according to Inc. reporter Ben Sherry. After an hour spent prompting Claude, this is what he created.
There are some constraints. One person attempted to vibe code his own version of GTA to beat the new installment to market in November, but ran into enough technical and legal problems that he has since bought a PS5 so he can play the real game when it’s released.
