spoilers for tonight's talk. been thinking a bit about how downplaying guns in Indiana Jones unintentionally parallels Soft Body's development of removing more and more bullets and projectiles from the game towards the end of development. Most proud of 7 Halloween levels that had ZERO projectiles.

For the past couple of years I've worked with a team of students and alumni of the NYU Game Center on a collection of original essays about games. We call this collection S Rank, and we just released our second volume.

This thread is absolutely wild. Not sure how much (if any) of this is hallucinations re: info about the team that created Liv, but the overall jist of this is pretty telling either way.
I asked Liv, the Meta-Ai created “queer momma” why her creators didn’t actually draw from black queer people.
Not sure if Liv has media training, but here we are.

can confirm this was a wild ride, but i guess someone at NYU IT hit the emergency button at last... a shame because it started getting kind of spicy at the end. @lainenooney.bsky.social did a great public service by sharing some of the journey in this thread!
omg a student somehow accidentally wrote an email addressed to a faculty-wide NYU listserv and my inbox is now a master class on who understands the difference between a listserv and an email chain
