Hi everyone — I’m Tessa, and I built ToolDrop.

A new AI tool seems to launch every hour, and the ones that are actually useful for making games or vibe-coding something often get lost in that noise. I wanted a directory sorted by the job you need done, not another giant scrape.

ToolDrop is a free, curated list of 130 AI tools for indie game devs and vibe coders: https://trytooldrop.com

You can browse by the kind of work you’re doing — coding agents and IDEs, app builders, code review, game art and sprites, 3D, audio, voice, narrative, trailers, store-page copy, agent frameworks, and hosting. There are side-by-side compare pages, and rough monthly spend estimates taken from public pricing (clearly labelled as estimates). New releases are added through the week, and there’s a short weekly newsletter if you prefer that: https://tooldrophq.substack.com

Listing a tool is always free.

I’d genuinely like feedback:

What’s missing that you’d actually use?
Are the categories and compare pages the right shape, or would you group things differently?
Any tools I should add?

Happy to answer questions here. Thanks for taking a look.
