Could you build this?

Partial The core survival loop and local co-op can be vibe-coded in a game engine, but a polished shipped game needs original art, animation, sound, and level design that a solo builder can't produce quickly.

What it would actually take: Build in Godot or Unity with split-screen co-op input handling and survival systems such as crafting, hunger, and day-night cycles. The hard part is content and polish: art, animation, audio, and balancing playtests. Such a project needs artists, a sound designer, and playtesting time beyond the code.
