Legit the heart of these kinds of games is the little human touches and those are entirely lost with this sort of junk in it. Regardless of quality it just doesn't sit right with me either.

Another aseprite user here: yeah yeah it's really good! You can also get it on itch.io or aseprite.org if you don't want to be forced to use steam!

what people need to understand is that literally every part of the process is art. programmers especially need to figure that out because holy shit I am tired of seeing my fellow artists bend down to the idea that an LLM is important to programming

This, the bullshit with "oh we don't use it for ACTUAL art, just concept art inspiration!! All of our art is HANDMADE by HUMANS", it's all just testing the fences like a god damn velociraptor. Trying to push the boundaries bit by bit so it gets easier to accept the NEXT use of Gen AI.

I was holding Uni… and Sunday was gone

The year is 2035. There are three game studios left. Each one produces a game every 10 years, killing 250+ developers in the process. They all accidentally make the same game because they used genAI in preproduction. They sell 500 million units each, missing quarterly targets. Everyone is laid off.

sheesh, the only thing worse than getting kicked out of the polycule is finding out via jira ticket 😣

"Our reality is being destroyed all around us"

Love how the term "indie" is used to describe both a single guy making a videogame inbetween their retail overtime shifts, and also a team of former AAA developers with family connections to obscene wealth

sorry to disappear and then come back just to hatepost but i dont think games that take a "bit less" than 10 million dollaroos should be considered indie

It needs to be treated as importantly as "no animals were harmed during the making of this film" Because yeah, for a time? Animals got harmed and people accepted it as a part of the process. And it was wrong. So is this, and it needs to stop.
