Show HN: Daily vibe-coding video games, day 81: World Domination
A developer using AI tools like Claude and Cursor has created over 80 daily video games. The latest release, World Domination, is a simplified clone of the board game Risk. The creator shares the project and invites feedback.
Background
- **"Vibe coding"** is a term (coined by AI researcher Andrej Karpathy) for building software by having an AI generate code from natural-language prompts, rather than writing it manually. The creator here makes a new game each day using this method.
- **Claude** and **Cursor** are AI coding assistants. Claude (by Anthropic) is a chatbot that writes code; Cursor is a code editor with built-in AI features.
- **Risk** is a classic board game (1957) where players conquer territories on a world map by rolling dice in turn-based battles. "World Domination" is a digital, simplified version of that game.
- This is the creator's **81st daily release** — meaning they've used AI to prototype and ship a complete, playable video game every day for over two months, which highlights how fast AI tools have made basic game development.
