Built an app using Lovable, vibecoding startup

Built a game using Lovable, a vibe-coding AI platform, this weekend.

Lovable organized AI Showdown during the weekend where users can build projects and compete using code-generating AI Models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google.

As part of my project, I have created a simple word ladder game, where the player can only change only single letter in each rung to add a valid English word. The game is to change the existing word one letter at a time into the target word.

This is the first time I am using Lovable and I am surprised by the maturity of the product. It is very intuitive to use and it creates complete working app in the first prompt itself.

I spent 2 hours creating this game, mainly to improve the word list, figure out to build huge amount of valid 3, 4 and 5 letter words, test the functionality, change the UI, check for security issues, change the UX etc.

Anton Osika and team has built an amazing product. Also happy that it is from the Nordics :)

Feel free to try the game and give me your feedback.
