Brief

levelsio's Day 5 update for the @cursor_ai #vibejam (posted 2026-04-07) spotlights Cursor 3 — a rebuilt, agent-centric IDE that runs parallel AI agents, hands off between local and cloud, and aims to take developers from commit to merged PR; it runs on Composer 2, quoted at $0.50 per million input tokens with a Fast variant at 200 tokens/sec (claimed >2x faster). The jam is sponsored by Cursor, Bolt, and newly Glif (@heyglif), which offers 100+ models/tools for video/asset generation and will have @fabianstelzer share promo workflows. levelsio calls out several promising entries (Sushi Belt, Surfing Simulator with realistic water physics, Grand Quack Auto, Roman Combat Sim), reminds creators there are 24 days left and submissions are open through May 1, and flags a $35,000 prize pool (Gold $20k, Silver $5k, Bronze $10k).

Why it matters

Cursor 3 is a completely rebuilt interface designed around agents: it can run multiple AI agents in parallel, hand off between local and cloud execution, and support a workflow 'from commit to merged PR'; it's powered by Composer 2, billed at $0.50 per million input tokens and the Fast variant runs at 200 tokens/sec (claimed >2x faster than other frontier models).

Key details

  • The #vibejam is sponsored by @cursor_ai, @boltdotnew, and newly @heyglif (Glif), which the author describes as 'like Claude Code for AI videos' with 100+ AI models/tools and trainable 'skills'; Glif rep @fabianstelzer is scheduled to share tips for promo materials.
  • Event timing and prizes: post dated 2026-04-07 (Day 5) states 'YOU HAVE 24 DAYS LEFT' with submissions accepted through May 1; total prize pool $35,000 (Gold $20,000, Silver $5,000, Bronze $10,000).
  • Games highlighted by the author: Sushi Belt by @0xSteen; Surfing Simulator by @sweriko (basic demo with realistic water physics); Grand Quack Auto by @ky__zo; Roman Combat Sim by @ttrusner — earlier favorites included a fly simulator @el_rei_gabriel, LeBeau Motel @VynseDev, and Roomba Wars @thijsmakes.

🧑‍🚀 Day 5 of the @cursor_ai #vibejam

Proudly sponsored by @cursor_ai + @boltdotnew + @heyglif

Today a little bit about Cursor 3, it's a completely rebuilt interface designed around agents, you can run multiple AI agents in parallel, hand off between local and cloud, and go from commit to merged PR. It's powered by Composer 2, their own frontier coding model that tops benchmarks at $0.50/M input tokens — and the Fast variant runs at 200 tokens/sec, more than 2x faster than other frontier models. Perfect for vibe coding your game jam entry. And @edwinarbus from Cursor is here to help you if you get stuck!

Lots of activity again today again on here, the best games (or well previews) I saw today:

🍣 Sushi Belt by @0xSteen

🌊 Surfing Simulator by @sweriko (this one is a basic demo but very promising as it has realistic water physics)

🦆 Grand Quack Auto by @ky__zo (or as I like to call it Bali Simulator)

🏛️ Roman Combat Sim by @ttrusner (continued from yesterday because it's had a lot of progress I think)

YOU HAVE 24 DAYS LEFT!

🧑‍🚀 Day 4 of the @cursor_ai #vibejam

So the new sponsor is @heyglif:

Glif is like Claude Code for AI videos and content generation: you can build launch videos for your game, explore asset styles with 100+ AI models/tools and train it on your favorite workflows via skills! Use it to make trailers, game assets, promo videos and more for your Vibe Jam submission! Tomorrow @fabianstelzer from Glif will share more to help you create promotion materials for your games! Because it'd be cool if after the Vibe Jam your games will take off and become actual games

Again browsing the #vibejam tag on X today and there's so many people building cool, cute and fun games so it was hard, but I picked my favorite 4 ones from today:

A literal 🪰 "fly" simulator, not flight simulator 😂 by @el_rei_gabriel

What looks like a multiplayer Roman combat simulator by @TTrussner

LeBeau Motel (another?) Habbo Hotel remix by @VynseDev

Roomba Wars by @thijsmakes which is descriptive enough to not need an explanation 😁
