The reward is not having friends that are cunts. Tell your mates when they suck guys!

Seems like a good reminder that my last game, current game, and next game didnt have any Ai used to create it. Supporting creators like me is how you continue to say "fuck you!" to things like this. www.gamesradar.com/games/epic-g...

Epic Games boss calls Steam AI disclosures "really irresponsible of Valve" as they make it "much, much, much harder for a game developer to have a chance of success"
"You have to get this Scarlet Letter of AI attached to your product"

In recognition of @balderdragonslayer.eurosky.social's birthday today, we're earning him his "Monster Fucker" card starting with Auntie Ethel from #BG3. Easily the Best Girl and one of my personal faves as well, I just like her for ... uh ... different reasons than Balder does! #sakart

I don't know who needs to hear this, it is entirely possible to build a whole game without generative AI. All our art, VO, worldbuilding, lore etc. is done by humans because we think our team is awesome and we value their expertise and labor. 🧡

Again, I managed to make a custom PBR solution run 60 fps on the PS Vita, on a 128 MB vram budget. I feel like people just forgot how to optimize stuff.

Hay game devs it’s a rough time so let’s try celebrating what you done as of late, share your games, your experiments, dev art or simply little experiments and what you learnt. Let’s celebrate what you achieved without LLM or genAI. And try to share and encourage who ever feels like taking part.

when I got laid off from Vice, I later found out that members of the c-suite had awarded themselves bonuses that were higher than my annual salary. I hope that answers your question.
