QWERTYS by Smart Keys - My keyboard fell apart. Now it's your problem.

Tetris meets QWERTY. It's Tetris, except the blocks are keys and every single one has exactly one home. Drop the A on the A. The Z on the Z. You get it. Miss the spot, and that key turns into a useless gray brick that just sits there, bothering you until you explode it. This is game is sponsored by Smart Keys App. Stack them right and the keyboard lights up blue, row by row, until the whole thing is whole again. Stack them wrong long enough and the junk piles to the top and it's over.

Intersting @diegodottac How much of the core mechanic was vibe coded vs manually tuned?

@yoann_berno3 I realized that it's hard to vibe code these mini games, there's a lot of work involved in capturing the right "feel." I think it was refactored twice at least, first versions of mechanic were so boring. I had a hard time trying to work on other projects while working on these games. Even though Claude is handling the coding, unit tests don't really capture how fun, hard, or frustrating the game is, so I feel I need to be actively involved in working on it. In other words, it was manually tuned a lot.

@yoann_berno3 and I still feel like I could spend more time tweaking it, adding more country layouts and other details.
