Feel free to add Nootbox Games to this list. We're making the upcoming game Rune Fencer Illyia - and since the beginning, we have always completely rejected genAI. We have rejected publishing contracts that would not respect this viewpoint.

Pretty sure this goes without saying, but Rune Fencer Illyia does not and will NEVER contain anything with genAI. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #ドット絵

Absorbed Runes can boost Illyia's movement, too! Just think of it as a bit of a bow-nus #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

Even the smallest trailer slot for Gamescom is unattainable for indies. It'd basically bankrupt us! So if you wanna help a tiny indie get some visibility, then I'd love if you could check out our awesome game - there's giant capybaras in it!

Each runic spell in Rune Fencer Illyia has a hidden quality to them. For instance, I timed her boomerang spell to match perfectly with the speed of her sword combo, allowing the player to keep up the assault for massive damage! #pixelart #Gamedev #indiedev #ドット絵
