Hi there bluesky, we are Arcane Ermine and this is our first game: Obstacle Overdrive, a cozy off-roading car game! We'll have more to share about it over the coming weeks, but for now, we hope you like this tumbly first impression
First look at the game I've been working on!

In our game you don't always want to send it at 100% speed, sometimes it's better to take things slow to make it over obstacles, so here's how the throttle limiter affects your driving

I want to take a break from talking about our game, and instead would love to know what games are out there that you think we would enjoy that have a similar vibe to our game?

We started out as a tiny team hoping we might be lucky enough to sell even a fraction of that - for every share, review, or positive comment, we really can't thank all of you enough. 💜

As a dyslexic it’s very distressing to see people conflate the ability to write a email with intelligence. Plenty of stupid people have perfect diction and we have to read what they say every day on sites like this.

Glad to see Polygon cover the resistance of game developers to generative AI--and to be able to speak briefly to one of the greatest dangers of this entire thing.
Gen AI doubles down on making MORE SPACE for production issues that *already make games worse.*

And now we know why the shutdown is ending.
The Federal Aviation Administration will limit business jets and other private flights to some of the country’s largest airports to ease strains on air-traffic personnel.
FAA Limits Private Aircraft Flights at Major Airports
The restrictions will affect private jet flights at a dozen airports, including Atlanta, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver, and Chicago’s O’Hare, according to the National Business Aviation Association trade group.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.
This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting
