Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I used Claude as a dumb intern. Everything written, seen, all the backend design is my work, that I can fully explain. I don't trust AI with any backend architecture decisions or design work. I'll only let it implement. There are about 10 vibe coded slop copies of this game that have no taste🧐 120
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yeah dev costs are lowkey kicking my butt. I didn't want to turn on ads/cookies so I determined a sponsorship would be the best way forward. I think DDG is fine with AI because they make it easy for you to just turn it off 210
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 27/09/2026They're just a sponsor. DuckDuckGo AI is not used anywhere in the game 010
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yep, DDG was kind enough to sponsor the project and cover development and maintenance costs 240

Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I don't any of DDG's AI in Anthropeum. They were kind enough to sponsor this project and cover development costs. I personally don't use their Duck AI service either. Just their regular private search 001

Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Anthropeum.games regularly has items misattributed with the exact issue you're describing. There were French photographs tied to America, African objects in New York, and Chinese artifacts labeled as United Kingdom.anthropeum.gamesAnthropeum Game — Daily Museum Artifact PuzzlePlay the anthropeum game free online.

Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I think it was likely the .games one. I have curated every single game since release on .com and if I had slipped like this people would riot. I can't do anything about the .games domain ripping off my work while my trademark application processes but that one is a sloppy copy 020
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Hmmm are you playing anthropeum.games or anthropeum.com?

Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Hi there, can you send a screenshot of the error you're seeing in anthropeum? I'll roll out a fix as soon as possible 110

Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 12/08/2026There may be similar artifacts, but every object in the game has been unique so far 110
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I'm the creator! I'm a software engineer lol, I find AI too dumb to make serious cultural and engineering decisions- I did use Claude but in the same capacity as an intern to delegate tasks to 👍 150
Matthew @mapoochoo.bsky.social · 29/07/2026This is the second time I've seen this... I'll do some debugging tonight 010
