Not a game developer, but as a writer... well, my ebook for book 1 (releasing on the 16th!) already says everything that I need to say in response to that drivel:
No Large Language Model ("LLM") or "AI" generated content appears within these pages. The words come from the author's imagination, the characters and locations and their respective names come from the same (or Selkie Myth, in some cases). The editing was done through the author's obsession with quality, beta readers, and the occasional error report from readers. And, just as important, all art used was commissioned from talented artists and is used with permission.

My favorite piece of character art is undeniably this piece I commissioned from @evanyell.bsky.social depicting my MC, Ranthia, having a quiet, tender moment with her girlfriend, Avyna. Evanyell really knocked this one out of the park!
A beautifully painted depiction of two women sharing a quiet, tender moment together. A human brunette wearing a white tunic had her elven lover (dressed in a blue-and-white dress) lounging in her lap. The human is caressing her girlfriend's horns, which glisten with freshly applied oil. The two women are staring into one another's eyes. They're seated on a chaise inside a very fancy tent, with evening's colors shining through the fabric walls behind them.

Hey RR readers, this piece is by @evanyell.bsky.social and depicts Ranthia and Avyna sharing a tender moment together. Happy Pride Month to those that celebrate it. Enjoy your first look at Avyna and a different take on Ranthia!
Two women on a couch. One, Ranthia, is sitting upright, focused on the other, Avyna, who is laying across the couch with her head in Ranthia's lap. Avyna's elven horns are glossy and a bowl of mineral oil sits on the arm of the couch. One of Ranthia's hands caress a horn, while her other touches Avyna's hair. Avyna is smiling up at Ranthia, just as fixated on her lover as Ranthia is on her.

I've peaked as a writer. Government approval obtained, thanks @cpsc.gov!
A joke comment I made on one of @cpsc.gov's posts about their lack of a blue check. I pointed out that CPSC.gov could be anyone, and suspected that it would take great effort to confirm that it's the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. But the important part is THEY LIKED IT!

Congrats! @dresdencodak.bsky.social

Also, everyone should support Sen's Dark Science kickstarter. I backed it and I like to think anyone that enjoys Blind Chaos would love it.

It has cyborg lesbians and numerous other completely straight and normal characters.

The Dark Science kickstarter surpassing $100k.

Not sure if I agree with it (also, hideous color, imho; plums are WAY darker). But damn that's weirdly flattering?

Quiz source: quizini.com/quiz/657afbc...
Plum Twilight mysteries. Hidden depths. Indulgent experiences. Your soul is plum: a rich blend of sensuality, mystery, and indulgent depth. You navigate life with the lush and enticing energy of a ripe plum, inviting exploration and enjoyment. Your spirit is deep and alluring, sparking a sense of intrigue and a desire for deeper understanding in those around you. In your presence, there's a feeling of luxurious depth and a tantalizing allure, like the seductive taste of a sweet plum or the comforting embrace of a velvet shawl. You embody the richness of experience and the pleasure of the senses, encouraging others to delve into their emotions and to savor the depth of their experiences. Your approach to life is passionate and thoughtful, inspiring a love for the complex layers of life and a deep appreciation for the sensual aspects of existence. (...And now that I'm done rewriting this I realize I should have copy-pasted instead. Sigh.)

Authors (web serial or traditional)! Let's start a chain of posts of your FIRST published book. "Quote post" the cover, a link, and three words about it. Here is mine.
Blind Chaos: Budding Rhythm (Tales Beneath the Dragoneye Moons)
Chaotic Lesbian Adventurer.

www.royalroad.com/fiction/9618...
The cover of Budding Rhythm, Book 1 of Blind Chaos (Tales Beneath the Dragoneye Moons) written by CrimCat. The cover depicts a smiling young brunette holding two large knives that seems to be in the process of turning. There are trees in the background. In the night sky hangs two perfectly ordinary dragoneye moons that are not the least bit intimidating. Cover art by Nozomi M, who is here on Bluesky. You should feel bad if you aren't following her, she is an AMAZING artist. Cover typesetting by miblart.com

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #2,046,860!

...Which is not at all impressive, honestly! I was invite era, but not fancy enough to get a badge. Sadface.
The celebrating 10M users Bluesky thing, I got #2,046,860, which is presumably not very impressive since I don't have a fancy badge saying I'm part of the first whatever percent.

Dawns on me I've been pretty bad about providing updates here; I tend to talk to the people I rely on for support directly.

Ranthia's story will be published! Selkie Myth, author of Beneath the Dragoneye Moons (the source) is providing a license for fans to use the setting!

Writing is progressing!
A screenshot of my Word document for Ranthia's story, showing page 805 and 354,752 words. Which is a lot. Honest.

Found her! She's hiding inside the artwork, using her cat magic power. Don't blame you for not finding her this time.
The same picture, except the well-hidden hiding place within the artwork has been circled (or some other shaped, at least) in red. Clearly that is the only explanation for where Tipsy could possibly be.

Well, since it's mandatory... (Sorry, not sorry!) #makeaterriblecomicday2024 #bskyart
Panel 1: A mercat(? the art is very dubious) announces "Corporate America has gone too far!" Panel 2: A close-up of the same(?) mercat(?? ohgods the art gets worse) continues "They will feel my feline wrath!" with glowing red eyes. Panel 3: A very accurate and realistic rendition of a Mega Corporation (the corporation is boasting they have AI integration), with an ominous red light in the sky. Panel 4: So much fire. Also disembodied text from the mercat (fortunately NOT shown) "One down, like one or two thousand-ish to go! Mewheheheheow!" The last bit is presumably supposed to be a cat laugh???

15 hours to go on the Dominic Deegan Legacy KS from @mookiebean.bsky.social !

www.kickstarter.com/projects/moo...

These are the commissions I got from his last KS. Two cast commissions (1 image) that are one of my favoritest pieces of art ever and Mookie's take on my Warlock.

100% worth backing!

That was when we adopted her, a week from today that will have been 9 years ago.

We were told by the pet rescue and by our vet that she was fully grown, just little. She was not, she grew.

(Picture from last year, she has camera sense and refuses pictures.)

Games released when I was 12?

-olds everywhere- Nice list though. One of my personal favorites when I was a youth, two famous genre-defining games, and a (largely) forgotten MMO that trailblazed technologies that were considered laughable that I played for many years.
Fallout (the original PC game) Ultima Online (the first major commercial MMO) Megaman X4, from the PS1. A game I have beaten uncountable times. Star Wars X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter, a somewhat legendary space sim.
