with sloppy (but convincing enough) AI vibeclones on the rise, developers now face a future in which a steady stream of pre-release videos, demos, and playtests—the only reliable way to promote and build community—could be their game’s undoing

anybody knows of a cool tool for blender to apply vertex color to vertex selections (not painting) as well as vertex alpha and being able to properly visualize both color AND alpha in the viewport? And not vibe coded 😩

I can confirm that this client runs like shit.

The fantasy that you will sell 12K+ units at $7.99 for that slop is downright comical! There is NO world where a game as bad as this do these numbers When will people realize its all a pyramid scheme...no one is creating any value or getting richer except ppl selling you the slop machines

1) LLM companies illegally trained their models on stolen data 2) Vibecoders use LLM to create copies of adobe softwares If OpenAI/Anthropic stealing is OK... It's all fair game then? Or will copyright and ethical sourcing become the most important thing for companies like adobe?😌

I can see vibecoders doing more and more stuff like this which is "legal" but build with an unethical tech, because it will force companies to face the big contradiction that's coming Similarly: If the PS5 vibe-coded emulation is ready for GTA VI, it'll probably create an interesting situation

But I think as usual, only big tech will benefit from all of this, while everyone below (including awful companies like adobe) will suffer the consequence of supporting this tech that was build and can only function by stealing data, consuming absurd amount of energy

v1.91 out for Steam! Fixes a bunch of small issues, and most important replaces a duplicate rodent picture with a new exclusive gerbil picture Mac/Switch/Itch coming soon

[SPOILERS] Example 1: Spider man's senses are dialed up to 11, he goes to the roof and the cinematography makes it clear that he's overwhelmed Peter's AI assistance: "Alert! Senses are overloaded." WE GOT IT ITS OK!! There are other example of this after

For players/developers with a steam game not launching on MacOS27 (OS Error 0): typing this in a terminal seems to fix it: softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license Feel free to share, as it seems to impact a lot of players, but there is no official fix from Apple (yet)
