Beyond happy that people still play Santa Monica by Night, this interview was a tiny dream come true!!! Thank you Lauren ❤️
Couldn’t end the year without something VTM! I chatted to @outstar.bsky.social about her Bloodlines-inspired flash game, Santa Monica By Night, a fun little nostalgia kick that you absolutely need to play! 🩸

Thanks for taking the time to chat to me Marty!

There's a Bloodlines story you haven't played, and it's one of my favorite VTM games ever made
Santa Monica By Night is a Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines flash game that you need to try, and it's just ten minutes long, so no excuses.

“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” stressed Canavan. “This is what concept artists were made for. Why would you pollute that glorious creative movement with joyless, photocopied art?”
Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did.

Staying at my BIL who made Bestiariusz Słowiański, talking a lot about art in AI era. He said now it's more important than ever to create things by hand, go back to pencils, use your personal style. Noone can take a real piece of art away from you.

Drawing all day today. ❤️

The pure bliss of being an evil vampire committing evil deeds and being like, "it's not actually me, I was Dominated" ☺️😭

"Record low sunlight in Stockholm. In the whole month of December, inhabitants witnessed only 30 minutes of sunlight" listen when I said I want to be a vampire but only if I get easy mode THIS IS NOT WHAT I MEANT

we're not talking enough about a problem with AI happening live outside of the media:

the dumbification of many smart and capable people happening everywhere around us, in families, neighborhoods, hobby groups, all because of growing reliance on AI

anyone else noticing this?

Bloodlines 2 adventure continues (or wraps up?! 👀) with meeting the mysterious Malkavian, Gardener.

Will he solve all our problems?

Made this cute lil' trailer for Bloodlines 2 Winter Update!

Really stoked for custom difficulty. Also, they added ability to skip Fabien parts in subsequent playthroughs if you're achievement hunting like I am. ❤️

got the same mac since 2012 because I refuse to upgrade if it still works fine (and the only big advantage of macs is their longevity anyway)

discord and slack apps stopped working years ago because "can't be updated on this system". fine, I'll switch to browser

guess what 😩

My introverted, closed off Salubri plans to be social for once in the only comfortable, safe space for him, using the night to visit a friendly bookstore
