Wurm did survive the last session of book three of blood lords, so that means new fit going into book four!
Coloured drawing of a fleshwarp woman. Her right arm is covered a mass of fleshy centipdes crawling all up to also make up her hair, her face is left untouched and the top of it is covered by a large black brimmed hat. She wears a large cape with a frilled end, that she holds open with her left arm, showing her outfit consisting of a white top and bright red leggins covered in black diamonds. Most notable though is the vast amount of clutter of equipment around her waist hanging from several belts.

Artists and audiences now have to swim through oceans of slop to find each other, which sucks. Sucks hard. But it’s a war worth fighting, because art and joy and beauty are still possible, and those who can’t understand them are doomed to failure with or without our opposition.

Genuine craft and understanding will obliterate LLM’s answer shaped nonsense any day. They can flood the zone with shit, but I sincerely believe their art will never outshine us; 10,000 careful decisions from a human will always hit better than a few prompts into a prediction machine.

I have to believe that actual quality and connection will eventually win out. AI is low effort wearing the skin of high effort, as they say. We’re drowning in dreary slop, but the faith I cling to is that humans will one way or the other fight through it to find each other.

Along similar lines, adding the source_color hint to vec4 shader uniforms can change how they’re handled by the engine

Seems like a ‘succeeded at its goals, but the goals sucked’ vs ‘goals may have been good, but it failed miserably to hit them’. Calling a game terrible but interesting communicates that there’s fun to be had frolicking in a train wreck

I remember you posting through learning Unreal and celebrating lots of advantages to Unity. I’m using Godot, graduated from Gamemaker, and I worry that Godot is teaching me 3D engine stuff and Unreal is the final destination. Good to hear the grass here really is very green

Ok wait but hang on, my understanding is that LLM’s can’t ’write’ code at all; they only copy-paste and mix code from their training data. An ‘intelligent’ entity capable of writing code can tackle a novel problem nobody’s ever done before, LLMs are just search engines for copying stolen code

Setting up the render for the Eight of Cups.
The Panoptica enemy from Ardor 2 is presented with eight cups, one for each of her faces, in a render for a tarot card. Disembodied arms hold the cups

The Recall card repeats the last card played, and whatever it's currently copying is displayed in its art. Because the metal and stone shaders use the same textures, I can make Recall display any other card's art by just plugging in that other card's textures

Thaddeus Psarris @thaddeus-psarris.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
For every card, I make a color and a normals render of the character, then draw lineart in procreate. I also make a depth map of the render and use it to sculpt a high-poly card, then bake its normals. All of these maps are put into the shader, and bam! You're in business. The final shader is 2D.
