have been sighing dreamily over armor again recently. please 2 enjoy the most beautiful armor (recreation) of all time (to me) www.flickr.com/photos/12591... made by Robert MacPherson for Dr. Tobias Capwell; photo from the Flickr link
A figure twisting at the torso in plate armor. A beautiful modern recreation of 15th c English armor. The armor has been blackened, but shines. Decorative brass fastenings and edges.

One thing that stands out in the responses i got was that genAI takes away the very thing that makes making a game so fun. It's fun and worthwhile to do BECAUSE it is hard, because the contraints force creative thinking, and that is in that tension point beauty is found.

my thought process while making the pixelvision8 palette ( lospec.com/palette-list...) - no pure black/ white, for extra character - colors that can produce loong color ramps e.g. white-yellow-orange-red-purple-black - at least one definite 4 color grayscale (gameboy) ramp

So the Jumping Spider game I've been working on and off was originally gonna have a rhythm "boss fight", where you, as the male jumping spider, have to dance for the lady jumping spider. If she doesn't like your dance, she eats you, and game over. I am probably not the person to make a rhythm game.
