merry christmas & happy holidays from g&w and i!! ^_^ 💖🎄🖤

This was in response to this btw I don't care if you're "only using it for conceptualization" or "vision coordination" You can just like, not use it. Period. Just use google. Look up actual artists. Maybe more of their work will inspire you, hell maybe you'll even want to hire them.

I cannot stress how easy it is for anyone to just not use Generative Ai I mean look! I’m doing it right now! It’s that easy!

Roy is the only Koopaling who can be defeated more than once in a single playthrough of Super Mario Bros. 3. In fact, players wishing to maximize their gameplay must take the Quadruple Roy Route.

can you believe it guys? #deltarune #utdr

The world 7 of Super Mario Bros 3, Pipe Land, is actually 3 little islands in the shapes of 3 pipes, reference to Super Mario Bros secret pipes zones. Discovered that few years ago and it still blows my mind.

In Super Mario World, green berries increase the timer. By strategically eating them to make the timer pass 100 multiple times, the music can be sped up repeatedly. It turns out that the music engine cannot handle more than 20 speed-ups, and slows down to a crawl instead.

I really enjoyed programming the pseudo normal maps on this only to never use the system for anything

And please also, AGAIN, never forget that they are inherently unethical to use because no one gave permission for their research or writing to be used in it. It is all stolen, and if you're using the plagiarism machine, please keep that in mind.

In the Mario Party series, an item's name was changed from "Cursed Dice Block" to "Creepy Dice Block". While it may appear to be an unnecessary change to make it more "family-friendly", it is actually an effective localization of the original Japanese name's double meaning.

that new fir video was so peak :DDDDDDD

almost done with the universally most annoying game dev task you better appreciate this!

I was gonna do some streaming tonight but unfortunately getting up right now would be illegal

Sketches from today’s smo stream :3 @fir.gay #art #sketches

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

Pretty disappointed in both @humblebundle.com and especially in @girlswhocode.bsky.social. Please teach girls how to code, don't push them into generative AI. That won't build their skills. Prioritize foundational programming skills and awaken their interest. "Tired of long days writing code"???

When I was a kid I used to bring Wario over to this spot and pretend he lived here

If you want to communicate your idea to an artist all you need is 30 seconds and the basic ability to grip a pen

In Donkey Kong Bananza, all Fractones refer to themselves as "we", suggesting a plurality or hivemind. However, there is one single random Fractone that says "I" instead. While this is likely an oversight, it makes it appear as though that Fractone broke free of the hivemind.

I think if you’re the lead of a creative endeavor like a AAA video game and you’re so incapable of delegating aesthetic ideas to artists on your team that you have to resort to the slop machine, you probably shouldn’t have that job

"save systems should dynamically handle object IDs and automatically populate the serialized data of every object that requires save states, and then for dialogue progression it needs to-" team cherry: WRONG. 1400 hardcoded fields in PlayerData.cs

the correct approach is the one that works for you and your game

training course LLM = Bad Image Generation = Bad Machine Learning = Ambiguous Artificial Intelligence = Ambiguous Use in actual applied science = Usually Good Actually

we will soon enter a generation of "artists" who cant answer the questions "how did you get that idea?" "what inspired you to make this?" because the answer will be "i asked Grok to generate 4 epic fire demons and i thought no2 looked cool so i copied it"

What gets me about executives at movie/videogame studios being taken aback at consumer backlash to AI is that they seem genuinely surprised that we like the human beings that make the things that we like

even if i didnt have ethical concerns about replacing concept artists and creative thinkers in favor of Chat GPT. it is artistically bankrupt to let your art be informed by an Ai's "creative input". if you do hack by default

Everyone is more or less okay with it” dude you make people emigrate to work there because you don’t do remote work, they risk having to change countries if they disagree with it

This actually pisses me off so much, as someone who is building a world and conceptulizing it and working on it day after day, the most creative thing you can do is use your FUCKING BRAIN to make stuff up and not let AI create it for you. Highly disappointed, shame on them

i understand that these corporations are beloved by many, but as soon as you start defending their use of AI, even if it's "a little bit", i need you to understand that you are being used as a corporate tool to normalize AI. reject it with all your might. corporations arent your friend.
