Made this game in 5 minutes–but is it the best use of my creation tool?

Hacker News

I’m working on a creative tool that made it possible for me to build this game in just 5 minutes. It's a powerful tool, but I’m at a crossroads now—with only a month of runway left. There are already some amazing tools in this space, like Bolt and Lovable. Should I add a paid plan and compete with them directly? Or would it make more sense to focus on a fresh angle or niche for this tool? I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback. Also, feel free to check out the tool behind the game—it’s free to try, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.
