Well yes - all of those do check all the boxes to technically be called "games". Can't really say much more than that, since it seems like that was the only requirement here? None of these games have any soul or uniqueness to them, they are all just clones of existing games with no twist or even challenge, they all use the exact same generic "art style", the website itself doesn't look fun or playful, it's dark and l…

Thank you for your opinion

I guess we can start a chain of comment listing their favorite ones, I haven't tried many but "wobble stack" is pretty cool and simple, "Starfall Defense" is a much more complex game but I love tower defense.

cool that you like them, i was repromptingthem abit, because they where alittle bit to simple in the beginning!

Just ouf of curiosity. Is there any business model behind it or it's just for fun? I mainly struggled with my AI projects to give them care after I finished them, so I'm interested in your direction.

yes, establishing a base fountation of games, and AB testing new ideas on a broader audience

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Game is just another creative media like books and movies. Does it mean that you believe that those will get expired too?

If you released 80 poorly-written abridged copies of popular novels, I think you'd also struggle to make much money.

Important to have those as a foundation or base, to introduce own custom games with broader audience and control the market economy on my own page. My plan is to save on marketing if I already have the user.

I’m so glad vibecoders adopt the same garish style of web design, I can spot them from a mile away and not waste my time in playing their slop. I hope this was worth the 2 grand and 10 minutes of your effort.

yes, it was very pleasant and I learned a lot
