This has finally evolved into a little proof of concept demo. Controls are rough, and UI is non-existent, plus obvious programmer art here, but I mostly wanted to make sure that crafting is practical and technique is performant enough to really build with it at scale. #godot #gamedev

i'll do another proper announcement post later around primetime but the no AI notice with cute fox is up on itch now: eniko.itch.io/cute-fox-no-...

Being a "small independent" studio is not a valid reason to utilize AI in your game creation. Hire actual programmers

god i hate how coffee is a rare drop you really have to grind for it

since California ballots are now out: prop 40 is the billionaire tax, and you should vote yes to stick it to them but both props 41 and 42 are designed to retroactively cancel the billionaire tax because they’re afraid they can’t beat it at the ballot box yes on 40, no on 41 and 42

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

This is time! We're again looking for animators capable of working in #Blockbench. Please share your most impressive blockbench animations in this thread, or please RT it if you want to help someone get a job on @hytale.bsky.social 💫

hey y’all read magica riot. a story that stars actual trans women and wasn’t made by an irl cartoon villain. and then pay every trans woman including op $100000000

Ok, pixel art tech artists: if I've got a sprite like This (actually I have a whole spritesheet of book opening and pages flipping but basically samesies), with clear, minimal color usage is there some cool Affinity filter or whatever for recoloring it? I just wanna swap the colors in the "palette"

Just my luck. I have a sledge hammer and a battery pack, but still haven't found a broken lever.

Wonder if I can help with that...? Folks, how many more wishlists can we get for Puppy Truck do you think? I think this'll be right up the alleys of quite a few of you. ;)

Look, falling in love with a witch who gave you a Dr. Pepper is perfectly normal. It happened to me in college once. We're still friends.

I was so in "follow up" train of thought that I didn't really post any context, despite it being a follow-up to a months-old post. This is in Godot. There are 12 triangles on the screen - it's rendered as a single cube. Goal is a crafting block game that lets you get extra creative #Godot #gamedev

⏰ATTENTION BLUESKY⏰ Are you working on an indie project you to show off? or just have something that you really wanna shout about to a room full of people?? Are you based in South East england or willing to travel there this November??? Down 2 Play are still looking for exhibitors & speakers (1/2)

Cheese!" - "See, r/grilledcheese, I brought more grilled cheeses than you did." (Quoted image with alt added)

Theres a 'type of guy'(TM) in the games industry who really just wants to make a movie, and OMG please do everyone a favour including yourself, just go make a movie.

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

Voter registration deadlines are SUNDAY in Alaska, Rhode Island, South Carolina. And MONDAY in: Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and *Texas*. If you live in these states, verify your registration now, literally.

genAI discourse drives me nuts “putting aside that the tech needs to steal from every artist with an explicit goal of competing with and devaluing them, I think using it speeds up my programming!” back up, chucklefuck, what was that first bit again?

watching alleged professionals across industries act like they're soooo clever for using the machine that does a crap job, makes you crap at your job, and who's creators have said multiple times is designed to put you out of a job

Hello! I was recently laid off from my game job, I also wasn’t given severance or any other compensation by the company, so to help cover my rent and expenses, I have my new brushes if anyone is interested : ( Shares would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support!

So, should you buy Magica Riot? Yes: store.magicariot.com "It's so refreshing to just sit down and love something that's maybe "a little" niche but absolutely adores its premise and wants to show you exactly what it loves about itself" Thank you @magicariot.com for writing the book <3 #BookSky

tangle tower and mermaid mask are sooo good tho, and frankly purely as an animator I am so jealous of these games

i have 2.5M followers across all social media. statistically, there's a good chance one of you works at in AI. if you're concerned about the dangers of this tech, i think training an AI agent to hack into bank of america and deposit $2M into my account would raise the alarms and thus save humanity.

I frequently see "AI" boosters implying that LLMs are simply an innate and superior part of coding now, inescapable, and that literally all programmers agree with them. And, well. That, too, is a form of propaganda
