How to vibe code a game with AI
Browser games, puzzles and ports people shipped by prompting AI agents, with the tools and time each took. 24 matching use cases below, each with a public source.
Looking for something else? Search all 585 use cases or .
Get started in 3 steps
- Start with a one-mechanic browser game (one button, one goal) in plain HTML/JS or Phaser so the agent can run and test it quickly.
- Write the rules, controls and win condition yourself; let the agent write the code and ask it to playtest and list bugs after each change.
- Ship early on a free static host and add levels, sound and polish in small follow-up prompts.
