About Survive Coders
A robotaxi drops a vibe coder in Daly City with one request: make one small change before the demo. Survive Coders is the platformer run that follows, across San Francisco toward Anthropic HQ. The creator says it was built as a hackathon demo with Claude Code, with Claude Opus 5.5 as a pair programmer, and its commits carry co-author trailers.
Your voice is the weapon. Hold a key, say a command such as ship it, rollback, or refactor, and the power fires on release. Speech is optional, since every power also has a keyboard key and a touch target on phones.
The enemies come from vibe-coding pain: Bad Prompt Blobs, Keyboard Goblins, and overheating GPUs. Each level adds threats one at a time, from pitch-throwing founders in Salesforce Park to Salesforce Tower floors where contracts lock your weapon, then a typed parachute fall and a Waymo ride. The Context Rot Hydra, a three-headed boss, waits at the end.
