Show HN: Blamo A vibecoded app for vibecoding vibe games

https://www.blamo.ai/
1•semateos•1h ago
Hey HN, my name is Sam. My buddy Danny and I (and our good friend Claude) have been making this fun app to make and share vibe games. You just describe whatever game pops into your deranged little mind, and BLAMO! there it is, playable on your phone in under 30 seconds.

Super Mario Breakout? BLAMO! https://www.blamo.ai/vibes/7350a500-09bb-4ed9-866d-001006f6f...

Text Adventure PacMan? BLAMO! https://www.blamo.ai/vibes/781cdd12-bc00-4f1a-8c6c-9726e143f...

And not just games, they can be little digital toys, and you can use generative AI _inside_ your creations. So you could make a digital pet generator, or maybe a creepy AI Mother's Day Card maker: https://www.blamo.ai/s/wfVwd

Because we're nerds who love recursion we obviously had to go down the rabbit hole of making a vibe game maker inside of our vibe game maker (and then make a vibe game maker inside of _that_ vibe game maker): https://www.blamo.ai/vibes/aad0b712-6459-48f9-a4ae-639b138a1...

We think it's a fun way to try out ideas and to be spontaneously creative. For example, if you're like me, you've probably had the thought, "is it possible to turn your phone into a vibrator using haptics?" Blamo! https://www.blamo.ai/vibes/ae38f783-f57a-4439-9a10-2bb4c5f77...

Is it possible to get people to throw their phone off a bridge for a high score? Blamo! https://www.blamo.ai/vibes/e01f92cd-b170-4036-a665-da1bab8dd...

Every creation is ultimately a single HTML file with css and javascript. As a very OG web guy (I co-invented the single pixel gif) I love that html is the unit of content, like jpegs for instagram, or mp4s for tiktok.

Because of that it can do more or less anything you think of that can be done with web stuff. 2D, 3D, TTS, haptics, tilt control, your creativity is the limit. But please use the app, it's ahead of the web version, and frankly, it's way more fun: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blamo/id6758107100

(The Android version is in the process of being vibed by my openclaw agent, who also enjoys making Blamo games.)

So come explore the vibespace with us! Show us what your weird little meat brains come up with, and let us know what you think. Happy to get into the nerdy dirty details with you all here if you have questions. Thanks! -Sam

> Is it possible to get people to throw their phone off a bridge for a high score?

In fact there was actually a fairly well-known app that Apple removed from the App Store about a decade ago that used the accelerometer to measure how high you could toss your phone in the air and catch it. Shockingly, this led to a noticeable spike in repair requests at Apple Stores, and the app was eventually taken down.

> "is it possible to turn your phone into a vibrator using haptics?"

Yes - there's about a hundred of these apps on the app store. Just, you know, make sure your phone is rated IP67.

Other feedback

Make sure the various games subscribe to resize events. I tried the Mario one, and when I maximized the browser window it left a huge blank area to the right.
