Could you build this?
Partial The Gym-style wrapper and API are vibe-codeable, but making arbitrary games deterministic, instrumented and fast enough for RL and robotics requires game-engine and simulation expertise that vibe coding alone won't supply.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a deterministic game-engine or emulator layer (for example, Unity/Godot or emulator cores) with frame-stepping, state extraction, and reward hooks, exposed through a Gymnasium/PettingZoo-style API. The hard parts are determinism, performance at scale, and reward/environment design, which call for RL and simulation engineers.
