Justine Moore, a16z partner, says Claude-assisted 'vibe coding' is replacing video games as a recreational hobby

@venturetwins We actually saw that with making games too, but making stuff in general is addictive. Hence our 'creation is play' mantra at @Rosebud_AI !

@venturetwins It’s basically software engineering role play, but XP points occasionally become money

@Sheldonbishop01 @venturetwins DUDE THIS GAME IS SOOOOOOO BROKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! https://02t.app/r/v1AB0AAAIOAQAALwAAASEBAQQAAAAD?utm_source=share

@venturetwins If you mostly play games like Factorio and you're a software engineer then I guess this statement is true and very niche haha

@venturetwins It really is. I haven't touched a game in two months and I was sinking an ungodly amount of time into them. Solo building beats solo gaming 100%.

@venturetwins still playing World of Claudecraft btw

the vibe code got me

@venturetwins It’s pretty much playing Lego and Minecraft. People just enjoy building and creating by nature

@venturetwins @venturetwins @Battlefield Download the SDK @claudeai @grok @GeminiApp

@venturetwins I vibe code video games as a hobby now, is that a meta? :)

@venturetwins It’s basically a gacha game but you’re using tokens to get code or graphics you want

@venturetwins Yes. Unironically. And you don't feel bad about wasting time

@venturetwins It's so interesting to learn that the last mile for video generation is code generation after years of work on this. But, take a step back and reflect on this: it just makes so much sense.

@venturetwins Every time I even try to play a video game it has to be Claude and never does. Except BG3. Bear humping 4eva

@venturetwins new and improved lol. Built this the other and me and my friends are having so much fun lol: https://02t.app/

If anyone is unhappy with their rating it is Anthropic's fault lol (just used the public domain)

@venturetwins I felt this way until the new Resident Evil game dropped

@venturetwins It really does hit the same loop. Tiny win, tiny bug, tiny fix, somehow 3 hours disappeared.

@venturetwins YES. I stopped playing video games entirely and just coded more in my spare time.

@venturetwins When are they going to install Claude Code in slot machines in casinos

@venturetwins I spend my spare hours in the evening now doing chores and saying yes to Claude in between.

@venturetwins I feel like now I get more attractive dopamine hits from vibe coding than I do from video games.
