the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

I don't think I've posted these marketing shots here! I arranged them for the upcoming Thick as Thieves game, and was also responsible for the architecture and lighting. I think they're fun!

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."
Pq democratizar a arte não é toda pessoa ter um desenho bonitinho feito em segundos, democratizar arte é toda pessoa ter tempo e saúde pra aprender e produzir arte se quiser mas principalmente ter condição pra pensar e se relacionar com arte com introspecção.

Refusing to use gAI even as refs is good business sense.
If you are fine stepping on other creatives that sends a message to others you can't be trusted to uphold the integrity of a project and those who work with you.
Choosing to avoid major copyright liabilities is A Good Thing Actually.

I've learned (and I am still learning) how to run a game studio for the last seven years doing both creative and biz. Here's a list of guidelines that work for us and might be useful for others that were lessons I've incorporated with our experience and guidance from others. 🧵
