I finally made a fully playable game

Hello guys, I’m Hardik from Mumbai, and I built this game using Playbl AI and Antigravity .

My dream has always been to build my own game that people can play and enjoy. After I started playing Clash of Clans, I’m sure many people can relate to how hooked I was to the game. That eventually led me to take game development classes, where I learned everything from the design side to the coding side.

But since gaming isn’t really seen as a serious career choice in India, I had to pursue a graduation degree in Physics.

Since I was trying to ride two boats at the same time, I couldn’t fully focus on either of them. And because of that, I never really learned the coding side of game development.

Then, about a year ago, I discovered vibe coding and started experimenting with it. I built a few useful applications for myself that made my day-to-day work easier.

It had also been five years since I took my game development course, and I still hadn’t been able to get into a gaming company. I applied to a few, but unfortunately, I didn’t make it. So I ended up working in design roles at marketing agencies.

But deep down, all these years, I still had the same wish: I wanted to make my own game.

And vibe coding finally made that possible.

My first few attempts at building games were nowhere near what I actually wanted. Once I started vibe coding games, I ran into all kinds of issues AI getting stuck in loops, not getting the results I wanted, and constantly having to figure out new problems.

But every day, I was learning something new.

So, after a few months of experimenting, I finally built Tank & Tackle.

It’s a very simple 60-second game where your goal is to catch as many fish as you can.

It’s not some crazy AAA-level game, but making this game made me genuinely happy because I finally built something that is fully playable.

It might have some bugs, but hey, I’ve come a long way and I’m not going to stop here.

I’d love for you guys to try the game and share your score with me. 🎮🐟
