Good job o7

I didn't know you had "billionaires reply to me" kinda reach.

seeing the quotes and replies on there makes me remember why i don't use that app anymore, jesus what an echo chamber

Crying billionaires is my favorite TV genre

Doing the Lord's work

God, he’s so fucking pathetic lmao

I like Fortnite as a game and I've played it for years to come, but seeing Tim's response to Kenney of all people is a massive yikes from me dawg. 😨

He should spend his time fixing his shitty game launcher instead of being a dork on twitter

Very funny that he said C++ and not C#.

Where I come from we have a saying: A stuck pig is gonna squeal.

Does he mean "up yours" in response to rethinking AI OR Up yours = fuck you Wonder if this will turn people away from using Unreal engine

Bro is so tech advanced his pfp is in 144p. He will really teach us the future.

every time I'm forced to see a Twitter screenshot of these clowns I'm glad I deleted all my accts there blessed bluesky where they dare not tread

Get his ass Kenny!

All this to say, keep poking that would-be bear, I hope you make him cry. On behalf of the rest of us, thanks <3

It may be equally stressful paying the bills in its own way but at least I don't have to do anymore security trainings where I get told people want to hack Epic because Epic is the Most Moral Company and the shining light of the industry, and evil bad men hate us and Timmy boy for our Values™ :^)

I won't lie, there have been months scattered through the last year where I net more in that month than I did every month working for some of the biggest publishers on the planet. The only issue is consistency. And I ain't even that good, I'm pretty sure I get by mostly cause of the shitposting.

btw I bought Kenney Shape to use for Ludum Dare this weekend! I love it!

absolutely fuck tim sweeny and the horse he rode in on. can confirm his employees all hate him

Of course it's fucking Tim Sweeney LOL

Ouch. Seems like you touched a sore spot of his. Deep down he knows.

Wondering if the response is also ai written...

Just like musk. They want admiration so badly

People wonder why I never support epic. TI’m sweet is an absolute joke who despite being a literal 1%r argues with indie devs due to his desperate need to not FEEL like the bad guy. Spoilers Timmy you just announced the pointless death of blueprints to make ai bro shareholders happy… ur the badguy 🤡

Wow 😭

People: "Bad things exist" Tim Sweeny: "this is about me"

He's been answering people with only a handful of likes. Dude is easily triggered.

it wouldn’t have made people happy about him promoting and using ai for games, but at least he wouldn’t look like a huge asshole who has completely lost his connection to reality even his analogy wouldn’t work either. even after c/c++ were mature, you could still write successful games in assembly

Doin' good work out there. You clearly hit a nerve.

He has some unreally tormenting takes but its always funny to dunk on them.

Imagine being so butthurt

You are a treasure to this community

Kudos. Unreal response (pun intended.)

You are a national treasure kenney. A hero. A real hero. Thank you for standing up for all of us developers! <3

I honestly never thought I could hate Epic more and then Tim and team released their whole "we vibe coded everything and it works just as good as Steam.....even though it's missing 90% of Steam's features" statement.

"your employees are liking my post" Kenney making the C in C-Suite stand for cuckoldry

Yo that's a helluva trophy to print out and hang! 🏆✨

Could save more time by simply not responding 🥲

Yeah you taught him Right!!! God for you Kenny!

Bravo! Most of them are simply investors and skilled self-promoters.

Oh to have just a fraction of the privilege and unconcern required to think of life's stresses as something you can just alt-tab out of. Don't worry. Skills are just little bars you fill up while doing your skill-building animations and careers are just tech trees you spend your career points on.

Very telling, and frustrating choice of words

It's C plus one So it's, like, better, you luddite

In context of gamedev, that one makes a bit of sense. If you're building an engine you want other teams to build on top of, C is, uh, not the way. To be fair, C++ of the era was also awful, but less so. Modern C++ and Rust are much closer to what you actually want.

I think it would be more fair to credit John Carmack if we're talking early 3D engines and games. Tim of course has done achievements in the past, but it's also fair to judge on what he's saying nowadays

Tim Sweeney try not to be a pathetic loser on the internet challenge (impossible)

His head is so far up his own ass he thinks Everything being Shit is normal.

I suspect that with guys like Sweeney, they were only ever in it for the money and clout and little else. Succeeding just gives the space to drop all pretense.

Not gonna lie, I'm kinda impressed that your relatively random tweet struck such a nerve that Tim Sweeney *and* Elon Musk felt it necessary to dignify your message with a response. Kenney: "If you choose not to use generative AI, you have my support. 💖" Epic Games and Grok: "We must destroy them."

God, Tim is such a fucking loser

Tim "programming is hard :(" Sweeney

damm, someone was mad, i think its funny how always is a management thing

You're one of the good ones <3

Tim Epic opens his maw and proves you right, billionaire couldn’t even be bothered to craft a cogent thought.

why is he such a manchild

Holy shit you pissed off Mr. Tiny Peeny himself

Gotta have something to write while paying no attention to the people you're playing with, obviously.

This text has pretty obviously been run through Grok. These guys can no longer even communicate without their AI binkies.

based Kenney!

"I write code" Do you though?

Tim Sweeney is a Dipshit Weenie🎵 Tim Sweeney is a Dipshit Weenie🎵

Your work is incredible Kenney, every new release fires up my imagination.

I love and trust your work, but even so I had to check this on Twitter to confirm it was real. Wild! Tim Sweeney, a billionaire, weighing in on trusting billionaires. And so poorly too. No receipts. No argument. Just proving how disconnected he is.

"Up yours!" Holy shit... I would LOVE to meet him in real life and tell him how utterly pathetic he is and how he is perceived by others. I want to see him break so fucking bad...

Ironic. I just watched a video yesterday (Extra Credits, I think?) talking about how the Marvel/Star Wars game has been deemed to have to be made with 100% AI workflows. So yeah, he's pretty comfortable with it. Pretty consistent to every CEO I've seen.

Does this mean you control Unreal Engine now? Because you just owned Tim Sweeney.

Doesn't this counter his own arguments? That he specifically doesn't need to write code anymore because AI is the greatest? Bragging he still writes code kind of contradicts his own nonsense.

get his ass

Incredible, he’s such a bellend

Tim is such a child. He's spent years buying exclusivity rights to games, trying to sue steam & doing literally, nothing, to improve his store & compete. Now that he's got AI doing the work for him? His store is relying on Valve's proton for compatibility with linux & has been called out on it.

What an asshole

He should up his expectations of his products

When did he last be a cognin the game development machine and not the guy at the crank. 1992? Even if you were still in the suck on the daily, you wouldn't be remotely representative of other billionaire CEO's, and a modicum of self awareness would let you realise that. GTFOH Sweens

Interesting choice of words ("Up yours!") as a response to an encouragement of game devs that avoid AI. Hopefully unintentional.

Tim Sweeney has demonstrated he's a bellend who is part of the problem. Adapt or die is a pathetic phrase in this instance.

props for keeping it real and not clapping back when he tried to rile you

That guy is a loser

I said it once, and I'll say it again: Kenney never disappoints! ♥ With a single message, Kenney made a beautiful point and pissed off a spoiled billionaire whose idea of touching grass is crouching in Fortnite.

Tim doesn’t seem like he’s having a good time

Wow, you got a reply from the real Tim Shit-for-brains? What an "honor"!

oh wow get em ken

He's the last author on a 2022 paper on the Verse programming language. In my experience in academia, the last person generally accounts to nothing more than a supervisor. He equates managing the work with doing the work himself, which I guess shouldn't be surprising for an AI bro.

Isn't this guy the owner of epic? He's literally one of the worst examples about being proud of ai.

I feel like his very pointed "up yours!" was absolutely meant as a double entendre attack, and if it wasn't you'd assume a person who touts their own intelligence and success would foresee that interpretation

Up yours, woke developers. We'll see who cancels who!

LMAO

as if telling the beloved free game assets guy to "Up Yours!" will be the thing that finally convinces people what a cool and correct everyman he is. such a loser

“Your employees are liking my post, they reach out to me all the time” damn dude do you have a public domain asset of a cuck chair for the guy too

Banger post. I'd rather make a couple dollars for hand crafted assets than get a blank check for slop

If they're at the poo flinging portion of Graham’s Hierarchy of Disagreement I think we're winning this.

Tim Wienie

that's frankly insane

Tim Sweeney was a whiny insecure bitch back when making Jill of the Jungle and he's a whiny insecure bitch now despite everything since then.

Bro how is that guy allowed to run a billion dollar company.

New career goal: make Tim Sweeny mad

Such a vile personal attack and you weren't even talking to him lol. I remember when you jumped in to ease the burden when a ton of us Unity developers were stuck contemplating whether we'd even have a toolkit by the end of the week. Thanks for always striving to give the community so much.

dont forget "hard :("

Ah yes, Tim "adding more wings to notes makes them go faster" Sweeney, a notably Very Smart Man

Very cool Kenney. Stand tall for games and all of art.

And AI-generated slop will never prove it's merits because it has none.

Oh I love that, get his ass!!!

Please, just call Tim a twat for me. You don't even have to type. Just post this as a screenshot for him.

Dim Sweeney

Dude was already so high on his own ego and his hate boner for Gabe and now he's high on whatever the fuck these pro-AI idiots are, too. Sweeney's in a completely different reality now. Also "I wRiTe CoDe" Not anymore you don't!

That's cool, but you should probably not use twitter. nazi bar and all...

Get his ass.
