iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

With the way I program things I'm much faster writing code than organizing actions. But I'm also the kind of guy who preferred the command line to windows 😛

Is there a way in Visionaire to script using code? I'd like to try it some day, but I had a very hard time with Adventure Creator and its visual scripting approach...

I'll be streaming some more #110AdvChal games in around 30 minutes. I have less time today (90 minutes at best) but I hope to get through another six/seven games.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 29/09/2026

Stream over, I had fun. I really want to do this more often. I went through six games in 2.5h, so I'll need two or three more streams to finish. Thanks for everyone who stopped by. The recording is on my Twitch channel if you want to have a look!

Gugames @gugames.eu · 28/09/2026

I really want to livestream my judging process for the #110AdvChal so I'm now making some preparations, if I manage to set everything up I'll be live tomorrow between 3pm and 4:30pm CEST / UTC+2. Stay tuned!

I was busy all day with our chess tournament, which has been an unexpected success (22 participants, everything went smoothly), so I haven't followed #110AdvChal at all. I see we have 19 entries for now. Gonna try to find a day to play them on livestream this year.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 25/09/2026

Our chess club is holding a tournament this Sunday and I was stressed by the organization. Our goal was at least 20 participants and yesterday we only had 11. I even had nightmares tonight that everything was going wrong. Then I woke up and we're now 16. Why do people wait for the last minute?

010

Gugames @gugames.eu · 19/09/2026

I'm currently 1 for 2. Lost the first one with a dumb mistake on move 7, won the second one recovering from a not ideal position. It turns out my opening prep is utter crap, I have to study more. Now three more turns to score the 1.5 points I need to reach my personal goal.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 18/09/2026

I bought it recently, didn't have time to play it yet. You know damn well I love dark humor, so I'm sure I'll like it. How long did it take you? If it isn't too long, it could jump a few places ahead in my backlog.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 18/09/2026

I'm glad I'm not participating in #110AdvChal because tomorrow I have a full day chess tournament and the first Saturday in the jam is always sacred for me.

Day 3 of #110AdvChal i've done quite all design, characters and objects. The game kicks off right away with a strong opening #pixelart #indiegame

What innocuous stuff had an enormous butterfly effect in your lives? In my case, that would be adding a Uni colleague on MSN Messenger after seeing a new nickname the Uni group chat. If I woke up 10 years later, I'd be VERY puzzled as to why I'm now living in Zurich and I have two kids with her.

Will you at least join my streams when I play the entries to judge them?

I love gamedev cause it makes me focus on many things: writing, drawing, music. Especially the latter - I used to play, but I've never been very good. Making music for my games scratches that itch. Here's the theme from Farty Party's, the frustrating mini-game from The Will of Arthur Flabbington.

I went to a local food festival and half of the vendors had AI-gen pics of their menu items. Blatant false advertisement aside (you're not gonna get a meal that is so abundant for sure), they all looked revolting. There was a tiramisu that looked like it had warts. I wonder why they keep doing this.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

You know I respect your decision. But on the other hand I feel like we'd have to show everyone that you don't need AI to make great things, I'll be missing your entry. Let's organize a jam in February. I already have some ideas.

120

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

That's why, despite being an AI hater, I'll try to ignore it. Because in the end people will understand that AI isn't the missing piece of the puzzle that will finally turn them into creatives. If you were a creative person, you'd have been one even before AI came into the picture.

010

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

We've always had slop entries to the series, by people who only cared about the prize. They were asset flips then, they will be AI slop now. Either way, they never score well, because they lack a fundamental care about the craft.

110

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

Game jams are a celebration of human creativity, and in a jam that also allows to use pre-made assets, there's no need to use AI to cut corners. And if you care about your game enough to look for the right music instead of telling Suno to spit out one, it's noticeable in the end result.

110

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

Side note about AI usage: I know this series allows for AI and I am pretty much against it... but I trust the community enough to know that the games making use of AI will be a negligible minority.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 27/08/2026

I'm excited to announce that I'll be back as a judge to my favorite game jam series! itch.io/jam/110-adve... I'm glad I got offered this opportunity because I don't think I'd have time to join it, I have another project I want to work on (more on that soon). Can't wait to play your games!

Why don't we host one ourselves? It's easy on itch. And since AdvJam has disappeared, AdvXJam isn't regularly held, and the $1XX jam allows for AI... we need a new one

If I had a nickel for every World Cup where Spain doesn't win the first game due to a player born in Cape Verde then beats Portugal 1-0 in the ko phase and eventually wins the final 1-0 after extra time while a man up, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

I think Where Wolf is also my favorite - it's just so full of dumb jokes. Either that, or No Rest for the Wicked.

I was going to be in Sardinia with my family today, but my flight got cancelled. At least it didn't get hijacked to an undisclosed location. Have you played Mutiny on the Clodia? It's part of Adventure Jampilation, my free compilation of adventure games on Steam!

Creating is the best part of doing stuff. 99% of those who use AI are bypassing the fun part, it means they never cared about creation, so when they say "it unlocks creativity" it just means "it allows me to roleplay as a creative person"

Fuck Trump, fuck Infantino and fuck FIFA, but hearing the whole stadium sing the Mexican anthem was very moving. That's what the world cup should be about. I just wish Mexico was the only host country.

Anything by @somepx.com - my favorite one is HopeGold. If you bought the "Bundle for Ukraine" on Itch back in 2022, you should own it. But he has A LOT of wonderful pixel art fonts with all diacritics for European languages

It has some uses - the stuff you'd have copied from StackOverflow is now easier to put in your project 🤣 but for complex stuff it's just awful. Luckily our company isn't forcing us to use it, I can't wait for the bubble to burst.

Gugames @gugames.eu · 04/06/2026

AI is becoming more and more human-like. It's now telling me to use a variable that has a typo in it and doesn't exist in the code. "It will boost productivity!"

I was a bit sad that Adventure Jampilation went from 17 to 16 reviews. But then I saw that the missing review was the only negative one. Can we get to 20 with a 100% positive rate? store.steampowered.com/app/4096750/...
