I tried this recently and the results were total banana cakes. They couldn't even make changes to Pong without breaking it.

I did not try it on games.

Many features in my iOS app at first come out technically working, but with poor UX and verbose text in the UI.

One or two rounds of testing and refinement and they typically work well.

If something is bananas, it is silly/crazy. If something is banana cakes, I don't know. Banana pancakes are specifically pancakes and are delicious.
