Correct. And Bitter Silver and any game made by us will be specifically gen-AI free now and forever.

Video games (especially AAA video games) need stories with more main, playable characters that are not just conventionally attractive white people.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

If you’ve enjoyed an indie game please consider leaving a review on Steam. It does massively help and the devs and community teams love to read them. Especially around launch when everyone is knackered, a lovely review is such an energy boost.

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.
Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.
If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

The situation with The Alters is a great example as to why devs should never use gen AI in games for any reason. We never have and we never will.
Hope 11 bit studios learns and never does this again. We cannot substitute human labor and its importance in our work, even for placeholders, with slop.
