next person to call something a "pizza tower like" is getting punted I don't make the rules

‘everyone in gamedev is using AI’ the business dumdums are using it to generate decks and write bad copy. They think it’s good because they think their basic lore ideas make a good game. that’s it that’s who is using AI

2025 has been really hard! to end out the year, i chatted with six local game developers about their experiences this year, and their biggest hopes for 2026.

I'm in this alongside some truly magnificent artists in our industry. It was pretty cathartic talking about this with Ed and I encourage anybody who is concerned about how art in games is made to take a gander.
