200 games on sub.games. 20 top creators who can get paid directly by their fans. no ads. no platform deciding who sees your game. just fans paying creators for great games. we're building the home for indie game creators to own their audience and get paid for what they make.

today we're expanding. playdotfun is now @playableint: the home for everything we're building. three products, one team: → @playdotfun: the launchpad for games. launch a playcoin, players earn by playing, devs earn from every trade. → @gamecreatorai: the AI agent skill that ships games. one command, one playable game. → @subdotgames: monetize the games you build. direct creator economics. same builders. bigger surface area. the next era of how games get made starts here.

something is wrong with it being so indestructible
I added a cybertruck to my 100% vibe coded game I think I need to nerf it because it's an absolute UNIT #gamedev #threejs #vibejam

Lost count of what day it is for #vibejam 💀 building a horde run and gun game with @threejs. Been down a rabbit hole on UI and graphic polish last few days. Here's a couple mins of gameplay. Check out the new super zombie at stage 6 that nearly got my ass

🚨Announcement 🚨 Most vibe-coded apps are toys. VibeJam #3 is where that stops. Five days. Solo or teams of three. One rule: build something people will actually pay you for. No demoware, no "look what I shipped in an afternoon" screenshots that never see a second user. $40,000 in prizes, free tokens for every participant, and top builders get pulled into a revenue workshop after submission because the hack doesn't end when you ship. Sponsored by @vibesdotdiy and @anything. Kickoff Monday April 20, noon PT. Register now. We may cap entries, and you can always tap out later, but you can't un-miss this one. Link in comments.

10 days exactly. commitment made and kept. going to try this.
game is out 🚀 #vibejam I said 10 days, it's been 10 days ✅ fully made by AI with @threejs (only manually work was on server/websocket/audio/assets) ✅ multiplayer (but playable alone) ✅ free to play, no login or signup → now submitting the game and leaving home 🫡 this is probably the last video I can post here won't have my usual setup, and my laptop won't run OBS browser, or any video editing software will still monitor all that and improve it how I can ofc but now PHASE 2 starts: - focus on talking about the game - getting more people to try the game - keep prompting to improve it based on feedback I don't think I could keep testing properly (or at least it'll force me to optimise it lol) anyway, it's now submitted to vibej.am/2026/ @levelsio more info below 👇🏼 (full thread of daily "build in public" posts in replies to the quoted post) --------------------- SO what's the game about? 💡 THEME a competitive race to $10K (speedrun mode) PITCH you're an indie on your way to success. but you're too broke to exit the roadside motel GOAL race to $10K and exit the motel → best times on the leaderboard HOW - mini-games in each room to earn MRR - random good/bad events (PH launch, Angel Investor, server crash...) - steal from NPCs or other players - gamble your money (slot machines) - knock everyone out and loot them ⚠️ NPCs can hunt you down (Hitman, sheriff) VIBE → 80s, synthwave, arcade, chaotic Habbo x Hotline Miami x GTA 💥 went from just a social Habbo-like game to a more instant fun & chaos one like HM & GTA ofc you can just hang out around the pool without breaking the law 😎 open to any suggestion and feedback, I truly want to make this as fun as possible go test, share it, and try to beat my time!!! → motel.floorsjs.com --------------------- last updates from this morning: ✅ world optimisations (shaders warm-up, lights clean-up...) ✅ fixed freezes on lobby exit, KO sheriff etc this was day 11 of building LeBeau Motel, and daily video 99 - road to $10k

are you faking tire deformation with audio cues or actually simulating the tire model? soundfx is great
I asked Claude to make Forza Motorsport 8 in the web with threejs and here's what I got ! Listen to the sounds as well. Devlog below 👇 #threejs #gamedev #indiegamedev

thread isn't about BigTech vs startups: it's about who owns the user. @levelsio said it: audience is the only moat. still no one owns your audience. the platform does. every creator is scared of BigAI copying their app while renting their users from BigTech.
I said this I forgot to who but I said it BigTech will eventually come for all apps / startups / companies because they can fill the niches now that before could not because they were too small Those niches is where entrepeneurs hung out, nice parts of the market people could build a little SaaS with $100K/y to even $100M/y, notjing like the $100B/y revenue BigTech was doing, but worth it With AI now BigTech can fill those niches they are the ones training and owning the best models, and keeping the best models for themselves they can outcompete anyone who doesn't own them (everyone except other BigTech) End game for their survival is simply trying to take every business, it's just capitalism This completely changes the prospect for entrepreneurs as there won't be much left, because BigTech is financially incentivized to have to take everything Because if they don't, their competitor will! x.com/marmaduke091/status/20…

I want to frame this in my wall @levelsio: x.com/levelsio/status/204369…

Replying to @JamesAI
Yes audience and community is the only thing Which is why I'm on X That also becomes more challenging as social platforms are starting to make your audience less important and just make you score per post/upload
