Moon Command is a free, browser-based real-time strategy game inspired by the Command & Conquer games I grew up on. Build your base, gather resources, and push across the lunar surface — two ways to win: army or race to Mars. Open mooncommand.ai and play (best on desktop). I also wrote the original soundtrack.

Could you build this?
Partial A browser RTS has a feasible core in a canvas or WebGL front end, but real-time unit AI, balance, and multiplayer or pathfinding at scale take substantial engineering and playtesting beyond what vibe coding produces alone.
What it would actually take: Use a browser game engine or Phaser/PixiJS with a tile-based map, an entity-component system, and a state machine for units and buildings. Pathfinding (A* or flow fields) and a scripted AI opponent are the hard parts. Good balance and multiplayer need iteration with playtesters and, for networked play, a deterministic lockstep or server-authoritative design.
