One Vibe A Month: Jan 2026: Level Up

The final push begins! Three new apps this week including a financial dashboard rebuilt in 1.5 days and someone’s first-ever project built entirely on their phone. The Level Up energy is real.

What Shipped This Week

Oakwoods Platformer Demo

Chong-U — Vibe coded 2d platformer game

A gorgeous 2D platformer using the “Oakwoods” art assets by brullov. This one demonstrates Phaser + Playwright agent skills working together — and there’s a full YouTube build video to prove it actually works.

Robin Ebers — Smart Market Intelligence Dashboard

Holy ship! Robin rebuilt an entire financial market dashboard from scratch in 1.5 days using Codex CLI + Claude Opus 4.5. The combo: Codex handled logic autonomously overnight, Claude nailed the design. $254 worth of tokens, one very clean dashboard, and a complete migration to Convex thrown in for good measure.

Hex Tactics

Natch — Hex Tactics is an HD-2D turn-based hex-grid game. Master positioning, resource management, and class synergies to win tactical skirmishes.

First project alert! Natch built this entire thing using Gemini and TrebEdit… on their phone. It might not win design awards (their words, not ours), but the mechanics are surprisingly complex. This is what leveling up looks like — starting from zero and shipping anyway.
