This is back with Opus 4.1 when I was still amused with these things. It definitely took better part of two weeks of intense non-stop prompting, but I wanted to see how far I could go with just prompting for everything (now called vibing) when this became viable https://www.susmel.com/stacky/ (press h for help)

Turns out, you could go far but you never lose that AI touch to it which I find absolutely horrible and (s)tacky, albeit technically impressive to be able to do that by not touching any code whatsoever.

It took you two weeks to prompt out a tetris clone? You could have written this by hand in less than 2 days!

I've done it! Before LLMs.

Tetris is a not a difficult game to clone by writing your own version of.

This doesn't take away from your achievement here. This is something you are proud of, and it sounds like you learned a lot about prompting through this process - I support this.
