iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Remember before AI when people would post code for free for everyone and the only thing they wanted in return is to credit them on your project. If you use AI to code those people don't get credited anymore. You just steal their code outright. Coding with AI is still stealing.

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

So crazy to see a streamer do a birthday stream and choose to play our game. It's like their birthday and now it's time to play whatever they want and they choose Jigsaw Puzzle Dreams. Always hard to wrap your head around how many people see our game as their favorite game.

Every time I think about how we got dinged for steam deck (and now steam machine) it pisses me off. Now we have corporations regulating the fucking font size in our games? Fuck you! We made a design choice and we are not changing it to your "standards". Games are still art right? Right?

Test failed due to poor legibility of onscreen text
due to overlapping or cutoff elements on the tested
hardware's native resolution. It is recommended
that font sizes be 12 pixels or greater in height
when played at 1280x800 for frequently
referenced text. Font sizes above 9 pixels are
acceptable if strong enough contrast is used
between the text and background, or the text is not
regularly looked at. We also highly encourage some
method of font scaling so that users can enjoy your
title at a comfortable viewing distances over an
extended playtime. The Following items were
observed as having poor legibility due to improper
user interface scaling at the tested hardware's
native resolution. Game and camera control tabs.

Russell Mulcahy's stint as one of the most prolific music video directors of all time really helps see what informed the visual language of Highlander, you can see the DNA of it in Wild Boys, and in the best possible way Highlander is just one big music video.

I've always been one to use a lot of smaller programs for things I need like video recording or windows customization, but lately with everyone using AI to code I'm afraid to download anything even if I've trusted them before. You just have no idea what they are copy/pasting into their code now.

I am truly heartbroken by what happened at Berlin Pride🇩🇪
No matter what incidents occur or how much pressure is applied, Chiitan will always stand with all the good-hearted LGBT people.

Good LGBT people simply want to live as their true selves and love the people they wish to love.

They seek neither expensive cars nor expensive houses—only to live quietly and peacefully, following the feelings of their own soul.

Until the day comes when LGBT people can live calmly, authentically, and with pride, Chiitan will continue to share this message.🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
