A project to use AI to code 99 retro-themed games featuring cats.
#vibecode #vibecoding #gamedev #cats #catsofbsky
A quick turnaround for #vibecode #cat #game 16/99. It's a little weird, but it's fun. Arkanoid and pinball with a Cat's Eye marble in the middle. And bizzare #ai music. I regret nothing.

#vibecoding can be amazing. Had a moment of inspiration for a #cat themed #game this morning: What if Arkanoid had a lovechild with a pinball machine? Well, slap some cat's eye marbles in there (to be on theme), and now we're about 75% of the way to a solid, if chaotic, button masher.

Happy #caturday! #vibecode #cat #game 15/99 is now out Cardboard Castle Builder - build cardboard castles for a trio of judgey cats. Continue codes (like we used in the olden times, kids) let you play offline and anywhere you want. 99catgames.neocities.org

OK, #vibecode #cat #game 14/99 is out! Pharaoh's Litterbox is an NES-style puzzle map game to help our heroic stinky cat escape a pyramid by burring 💩 in desert sand. Took longer than I expected, but it's a good one.

You know who's bad at making puzzles? LLMs. Getting up and running on #Cluade #Code helped with going from idea to game, but between Claude and every ChatGPT model, I can't get anything to create a good puzzle map for my next #vibecoade game. Even when I gave it an example, it just mangled them🤦

Well, it's #vibecode #cat #game lucky #13. Inspired by a post about "misfortune cookies" I figured slot 13 needed good luck. Behold - Oracle Cats! Seven sage cats will read your fortunes and cast bones to give you guidance. Spoiler - most guidance is to nap.

OK, we're back, and pushing out #cat themed #vibecode #games Catstronaut PANIC! combines the well-known mechanics of Asteroids with cats (and maybe farts?)

As always, this project is just for fun, and free to all. Enjoy!

Working on the next #cat #vibecode #game - but this one might have to wait until after a brief vacay 😸

Happy #Caturday! #cat #vibecode #game number 11 is out - Purrimeter Tower Defense. An homage to Paul Preece's early internet flash game from 2007, Desktop Tower Defense. Enjoy this and other cat-themed games at 99catgames.neocities.org

OK, #vibecode #cat #game no. 10 is published! Zoomies, an ode to one of my favorite classic games, looks and sounds great. #claude 4 really pulled its weight this time. 10 down, only 89 more to go...

Play at 99catgames.neocities.org

New #vibecode #game!!! And it's definitely not based on the first part of a movie about a #cat. Works on mobile as well. Give it a spin at 99catgames.neocities.org

What would a #cat do in space? Rocket-powered zoomies and blast things I guess. #vibecode #game number 8, SpaceTube, is live on 99catgames.neocities.org

Ths #Caturday why not play a #cat themed #game? Untangled is a fun and simple word unscramble game. 99catgames.neocities.org
May 10, 2025 at 1:06 PM
What seems to totally confound #Claude and #ChatGPT? Apparently code relating to yarn balls. A simple word descramble #vibrcoade game is proving to be more than either can handle. We haven't even gotten close to working fundamentals after a week, always devolving into hallucinations.

Next #cat themed #vibecode #game is out - Snack Match! Sort of like if Dr. Mario had a hungry cat. Should work best on mobile. Like all my games, free to play at 99catgames.neocities.org
May 1, 2025 at 6:25 AM
On to the next #cat themed #vibecode #game! Trying to go simple with this one, inspired by Dr. Mario. Competing #Claude vs. #ChatGPT, o3 had an early lead but stumbled when it started recoding the whole freakin' thing worse and worse every single time for any tiny adjustment. 🤦
April 29, 2025 at 3:51 PM
OK, the #Cat Petting Simulator #game is ready to see the world! Cat Petting Simulator gives you to joy of petting a cat, with all the sass of petting a cat. Maybe Whiskers can be one of the #catsofbsky #catsofbluesky Free to play at 99catgames.neocities.org
April 25, 2025 at 1:11 PM
Finally made progress, and in the home stretch on this #cat #game. #Claude was all over the place so badly that it ended up hallucinating the need to code in a debugging window for added troubleshooting (which wasn't needed, but OK.) Hoping Whiskers can come out to play tomorrow.
April 24, 2025 at 5:44 PM
Apparently a simple #cat petting simulator really stumps #Claude and especially #ChatGPT. "How does cat...love?" Speaking of which, o4 - not awesome at coding. It's like using Claude and ChatGPT went from #vibecode Bonnie and Clyde to Sid and Nancy.

#vibecode game no. 4 is live! Only 95 left to go. This #cat themed retro game is a bit of Atari's Adventure and a bit of NES Legend of Zelda. Help #TacoCat rescue the Goblet of Peace from the evil demon. Free to play at 99catgames.neocities.org
April 16, 2025 at 12:43 PM
#Taco #Cat vs. a den of scorpions and spiders. Final touches at this point on a #vibecode cat-themed mashup of Adventure and Zelda 1. Oddly enough, #Claude gave me a good game engine and sprite a week ago and couldn't replicate it on a second attempt.
April 14, 2025 at 5:56 PM
Well, it's a bit rough around the edges, but Snacky Cat is my next #vibecode #cat themed retro game. Tag-team of Claude 3.7 and ChatGPT for things like sprites, tiles, and some sounds. I've learned healthy respect for all the Nintendo designers with this one! 99catgames.neocities.org
April 10, 2025 at 9:11 AM
Making progress - at this point a few more tweaks and some added sounds/music and it'll be good to go.
April 9, 2025 at 4:21 PM
Anyway, working on the next #vibecode round, a take on the single-screen platform jumper, similar to the first level of Donkey Kong. The nice thing is fitting in 15-20 minutes at a time while having breakfast or baking cookies. Claude 3.7 made a very playable first draft.

Not sure what happened to the boxart image, but here's a screencap of the Nyan Cat game instead.
