The successor to GZDoom is out now, after GZDoom's lead developer decided to start 'vibe coding' with AI.

For those worried, this should perform EXACTLY the same as GZDoom. Probably better, and with improving compatibility as there's more people actively working on it and listening to the community
The pre-release for UZDoom's debut is here! If you'd like to help us test UZDoom in preparation for 4.14.3 grab the build here: github.com/UZDoom/UZDoo... (expand the Assets tab)

(Windows and Linux available; Mac coming later)

Read the details here: zdoom.org/wiki/UZDoom_...

Well, fuck. Revoking any and all Peripeteia recommendations (and I wish I could un-back it on Kickstarter) based on the very thinly veiled transphobia from the dev (the first one in the screenshots here).

I hate this.
Acquaintance grabbed these screencaps. Idk if it's getting purged.

"Second stage is people rejecting conspiracy discourse" is genuinely hilarious, I gotta teach em a little about Yakub and maybe they'll change their tune

TW: Transphobia

God damn it. I wish I could say I was surprised...
I had a gut feeling something was off about the devs way back when I played their 1st demo. I couldn't justify it so I ignored it. But when they hired h*rotonfa for their UI I knew something was fishy.
I fucking hate being right.

I've known Milly Thompson for 5 minutes, and if anything happens to her, I'll kill every person in this room and then myself.

Some illustration coursework.
I think starting digital art was a good way to get me going again, and it's a skillset I want to continue developing. But I have a good feeling that going back to traditional art is going to help me break through another one of the mental blocks holding me back.

Reading an English exam paper for a grade 8 learner today and the source text for the comprehension, summary, and language sections of the paper are all listed as being AI generated.

I'm sure the grammatical errors in the paper have nothing to do with that.

Artists! Show an old piece you still love!

Made this about 4 years ago, and I still think it's pretty good. I'm not currently doing much pixel-art, but I'll get back to it eventually.

Post an old illustration you still like

Don't have many from the before times, but I do still like this one I did during an internship in 2019.
