Seriously, what's the fucking obsession with telling "AI" to port every old game to every old system that it didn't get a port for? i don't need to play Zelda on my Atari. i don't need to play Gunstar Hero's on my Amiga. what the fuck?

Java was meant to be "write once, run anywhere". How does that hold up for retro programming? I tried it on a Windows XP Pentium III, a Commodore 64 and an Amiga 500. No println, but Duke does get Copper bars. #c64 #amiga #java

YOU HAD AI CODE THE GAME FROM THE BOOK THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO LEARN HOW TO CODE FROM IM BECOMING THE JOKER

New #ZXSpectrum game has been released by Juan J. Martínez (Author of Night Knight, Rescuing Orc, Brick Rick: Graveyard Shift and others). Outpost is a new platform-adventure game in Juan's gaming style, great graphics, sound and gameplay. www.usebox.net/jjm/outpost/

AI proponents cling to the idea that the tech is going to enable boundless creativity, but I've seen what it enables; endless spam. It's enabled people without a single ounce of creativity in their bodies to make endless Balatro clones, genuinely no thoughts of their except Balatro but slop.

It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.

Hey all I've released my cpclib which I'm using to convert my Vic 20 games I've made in Turbo Rascal to the Amstrad CPC. hewco.itch.io/amstrad-cpc-... It's super easy to use and has a lot of documentation.

Hahaha oh come ON! Guess what, this is even worse than "cyber correspondent for the BBC doesn't know what PHP is". He's WRITTEN A BOOK ON HACKING. He wrote a book on hacking and didn't know PHP existed. I wouldn't have even needed to provide a pic and you'd have been able to predict the man.

Thing is, if we expect storefronts to let people inform their purchasing decisions with AI disclosures then where does it end? Listing the developer and the publisher? Minimum spec requirements? Age ratings? Controller support? You gotta think this through

You may have noticed my new handle! I’ve decided to port from US hosted bluesky servers and across to the Eurosky instead. The data is hosted on servers in Germany, subject to GDPR & European law. Eurosky is operated by Stichting Modal, a Dutch non-profit foundation. They do not sell your data.

So I did an AI port and, while it’s far from vibed and runs at full speed on a 512kb A500, it feels hollow and I wish I’d done it myself now. I always planned to but never had time. Probably never would have had time. Gonna sit with this for a bit. Anyway, I hope you're all having fun. #Amiga

Godot's GridMap and Sprite3D nodes make it so easy to set up a pixel art 2.5D world.
