Could you build this?
Partial The game logic and engine can be vibe-coded in an engine like Godot or Unity, but a faithful 3D remake needs substantial original art, level design, audio, and polish that are not produced by coding alone.
What it would actually take: Use a game engine with a 3D renderer, physics, and level loading, then recreate the original gameplay mechanics through play-testing and design docs. Original assets (models, textures, music, and sound) must be produced by artists and composers to keep the 100% original requirement. A small team with game design, art, and audio skills is needed for a result that feels faithful.
