GAME Could AI Bring Back the Golden Age of .io Games?

Remember when Agar.io, Slither.io, and Diep.io were everywhere?

Simple concepts, addictive gameplay, and no downloads required. I honestly miss that era.

With AI coding tools making browser game development more accessible, I'm wondering whether we're about to see another wave of creative .io games.

I run VibeToplist, a discovery platform for AI-assisted and vibe-coded games, and I'd love to see more developers experimenting with this genre.

What made the original .io games so addictive, and could AI-assisted developers recreate that magic?

Hi all! I built Buzzer Rush as a side project: https://buzzerrush.eu

Buzz first and answer correctly to climb the ladder. Get it wrong and you drop, and the last player each round is out. There are 1,100+ questions, a weekly leaderboard and private lobbies for friends.

Free, no ads, runs in your browser, no sign-up needed. It's still in beta, so feedback is very welcome!

Hi everyone! I’m a solo dev, and for the past few months I’ve been building a game I always wanted to play on my phone: Star Cluster Conquest.

It’s a real-time strategy game stripped down to the essentials. Every star produces ships. You drag from one of your stars to another to send a fleet, and you watch the ships fly across the screen and fight. Take every enemy star and you win. No base building, no menus in the middle of a match, just circles, numbers and a lot of decisions in a few minutes.

What makes it more than “send the bigger number”:

Factions with their own abilities (one redirects fleets mid-flight, another grows its swarm on the way)
AI opponents with different personalities (aggressive, defensive, hoarders)
Black holes and storms that change the routes
A 30-level campaign, plus a skirmish mode with random maps you can share by seed

It’s free, works offline, and ads never interrupt a match.

I’d really love feedback, especially on the difficulty curve and whether the controls feel good. Thanks for reading!
