If you throw around ANY spurious accusations of Derivative AI use, you’re running interference to the direct benefit of Derivative AI. Techbros *want* the paranoia, the false positives, the casual accusations. It provides cover for them. Regurgitative AI thrives in muddy water.

“If you use <insert grammatical pet peeve here> then I know your writing was done by AI.” Cool, and if you use AI paranoia to try and shame a writing style you don’t like, then I know you’re a bit of a cunt.

Earlier this week we had to say goodbye to our little one, Lea, at the age of 13. Her health was always fragile, which made us love her even more intensely. We will miss you so, so much. You were a very special cat. Losing both furry friends in less than a year has been devastating.

Another redraw of art that was bugging me in my Playdate game Sound Mind: the DeSeese family portrait. Drawing over assorted pictures of dead people again, because your boy still doesn't understand human proportions.

Happy April Fool's Day fellow adventurers 😜 Here's an update video with no fooling at all, well maybe a little 😉 youtu.be/3JkAmAoFWF0

I've completed Midnight Scenes Among Graves by @whiteblanketgames.bsky.social! The story is scary, but imo not as scary as the previous Midnight Scenes games. I love the pixelart graphics by @octavinavarro.bsky.social and the crows in this game. Definitely worth playing! 👍 #pixelart #retro #indie

Happy Daylight Saving Time to those who are suffering it today!🔅🌺 (art by @octavinavarro.bsky.social )

Our lovely three-eyed woman from Saturn has a message to all Earthlings:

The launch discount for Midnight Scenes: Among Graves is about to end on Steam! (Which means our sales will come to a screeching halt 😥) If you’re interested in our newest ghost-story-game, you should get it today before it's too late!

When are they gonna do something that IS for the faint hearted? I've been waiting so long.

There’s a beautiful, strange allure to the colour purple. It feels occult to me, otherworldly. Gilt features the colour in many small ways.

Nvidia’s CEO can spout whatever technonsense he likes about regurgitative AI, I’m not going to dignify it by reading a fucking word. The conversation stops at the fact AI is toxic waste. Ethically, morally, financially, environmentally. You cannot rhetorically clear that checkpoint.

Unless there is an exceptionally good reason for not doing it, art placeholders should always look like placeholders. The goofier, the better. 😁 #Blasphemous

Dicho esto, mi favorito de la serie es Midnight Scenes: A Safe Place. Juegazo que ahora con las rebajas está a 4 euros donde encarnaremos a Phill que está escondido en su cuarto durante días porque algo oscuro le persigue. No lo dudéis. store.steampowered.com/app/2485750/...

Otro juego del brutal artista @octavinavarro.bsky.social. Su saga Midnight Scenes es super recomendable si te va el misterio y el terror. Son cortitos, buenos y baratos. Among Graves mantiene el nivel aunque eché en falta más escalofríos. Su análisis en uVejuegos 👉 uvejuegos.com/analisis/Mid...

As some people mentioned, it's unfortunately good timing for the book, with the word 'generative' mutating in meaning and use. This book is a reminder that creative technology does not have to mean value extraction or infinite slop - as long as we build and use it with people in mind.

Woah! #DLSS5

Rosewater seems to have a slight exposure problem. Great reviews, discounted 25%, and yet sales have been minimal. If you’ve played it and enjoyed it, please help spread the word! store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

I'm home and I've written a bit on my blog about post-GDC feelings: meredithgran.com/gdc-thoughts...

My hope at this point is that our little games contribute to making the players' day a bit brighter. 90 minutes of simple entertainment, away from the news and all the horrible real world stuff. Midnight Scenes: Among Graves, coming next Tuesday!

review the games you play if you want more indie games. even a single review can help an indie studio. and if you go through someone's catalogue and review several....? it helps so much more than you can imagine for small games.

Can you avoid what's inevitable?💀🪦 The new episode of Midnight Scenes is coming... Wishlist now!💫 STEAM: bit.ly/4ob6H1i GOG: bit.ly/3WkL56d #MidnightScenes #AmongGraves #pixelart #horror #indiegame #gamedev #wishlist

Searching for any illustrators comfortable with designing the cover of a gothic horror novella. As much as I enjoy drawing my own covers, I would love to pay some commission money forward for an upcoming project! Please link portfolios and rates! Absolutely no AI.
