Bibdu retells stories from Irish Myth like Táin Bó Cúailnge, Battle of Mag Tuiread and tales of the Fianna. You might encounter the banshee, ollpeist, dobharchú, sí, mermaids, wolfmen and more! Click Notify Me On Launch to stay updated! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ www.kickstarter.com/projects/rat... #indiedev #gamedev

When devs apologise for using AI but in the same breath justify it as ~reducing labour time for volunteers working on game (indies) or reducing early stage work for artists (AAA), implying it is reducing exploitation !!!! As if the AI thing itself isn’t the biggest exploiter of the arts out there!!!

The hazelnut brings wisdom in folklore. This is how the salmon of knowledge came to be. When Boann ran away to a well, disobeying her husband, she found it swirling with 7 hazelnuts and magical salmon swimming in it. She walked around it seven times and summoned the River Boyne from within #indiedev
