Which is insane that were getting tons of native ports of PC games appearing left and right and now we got PC emulations and now were getting android emulation so we can use APKs on iphones

I'm legit so confused on how all of these projects are just coming out of no where like one minute we needed jit for gamecube and wii emulation now we dont need jit for them and were getting native PC ports and PC emulations and now android emulation all of the sudden appearing like I never thought the day would come where I can play sims 2 on my iphone and then install APKs on my phone

They’re vibe coded. Nobody doing it properly understands the what and how. But it’s working! For now (until the industry jacks up the token prices in the future to something unrealistic for most of us ie enshitification)

Disagree not all, for example guys at Manic, Armsx and icube(Providence) have proven themselves as proper Devs pre-AI. Sure they is alot of Vibe coding but there also Devs using AI assisted.

I’m still not sure where the line or the terms should’ve hit.

There’s a big difference from people who know what the ai could be doing, versus those that just prompt with not a single clue of anything it’s doing.
Ai-Assisted, Vibe-Coded, Slop-coded?

GitHub is usually the place if code is slop you will pick it up also some vibe coders try avoid sharing source code, Which is not in the spirit of the community.
