Hey mark. I really enjoy playing your design method games. I was wondering, would you consider creating a game that teaches pixel ratio measuring?

Mark: Hi Joel, I haven’t considered a game like that, but I’m curious as to what’s your idea if you’d like to share. Do you refer to pixel density or image ratios? Like “try to draw a 1:1 square or 16:9 rectangle?”

Correct!

Mark: Sounds easily vibecoded and could be made fun, I work fulltime now so I don’t make any promises, but I might just take it for a spin one day.

If I may suggest this is also completely within your reach today, describe to Claude what you want and, with enough patience, it will give it to you. If you show it to me I can also help you with some prompts to take it to the next level.

Either way it’s fun.

Kind regards, Mark

Thank you so much for your response. My wish is to be able to vibecode, but it’s too much for me as I’m in the middle of learning a ton of other stuff. That said it’s on my bucket list. Let me know if you have any progress updates, and I understand that you have other priorities. Thank you so much

Mark:

Completely understand, we can only eat as much as we can digest.

After writing that I decided to play around an hour to see where I would get, this is the result:

A vibecoded aspect ratio game

At some point you will have to put your learning to practice, use AI to fool around, as if there were nothing to learn about it, the sooner you get acquainted the better. It is great for putting your ideas into action, quickly. I should practice this more so thanks for the human to human prompt.

Cheers,
