Enfin pris le temps de mettre sur itch notre jeu de jam de 2020 :
Dual Core, un jeu à deux joueurs qui mélange Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes et le film Hitch (2005).

Développé avec Vincent de @lastmoongame.bsky.social et T05.

Content warning : jeux de mot douteux.

Internet ne pouvait pas se passer beaucoup plus longtemps d’un iceberg des jeux de pêche. Tout le monde le savait, mais personne n’osait s'y risquer ! Bref, on a pris une décision.

Bien des mois plus tard, voici le Monstre: notre vidéo la plus chill ET la plus inconcevable.

Un poisson portant des lunettes de soleil se tient à la surface de l'eau. Il lève une main au ciel et tient dans l'autre une sorte de cigare. La partie immergée de son corps est un squelette. Autour de lui, au milieu de l'océan, flottent plusieurs icebergs en forme de têtes de poisson. Le poisson est tiré de la pochette du jeu Fish (1988).

Pour ceux qui n'ont pas suivi, au Muskdor ils ont ajouté un crachats à la gueule des artistes en mettant un bouton Éditer l'image à toutes les images publiées. Ça enlève les watermark et modifie le contenu selon le souhait du salopard qui veut s'essuyer les pieds sur la composition d'autrui

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.

But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

I’ve been in game dev for 26 years and I can’t remember any other time where a specific tech was being insistently and persistently pushed on devs as a group in the public sphere.

Why would it? Cui bono? Why would any given dev have an interest in other devs using tech they don’t have a stake in?

My conspiracy theory about genAI in games blowing up more and more by big companies is that they’ve all got a ton of investors insisting they use genAI tools otherwise they(investors) won’t be able to bankroll em anymore

my thing is even I didn't have a fiery personal grudge against Twitter, I would not use it for the same reason I don't use Facebook - it's a miserable user experience. It's nothing but ads and ragebait and ai slop. It doesn't have to be a moral stance, it's just a shit product

With Critical Reflex being such a major player in the indie space, these accusations of covered up sexual harassment and unfair labour practices are all deeply disappointing and distressing. I hope this all gets tackled quickly and decisively.

Fidèle (2003–2016) was a famous dog in Bruges who lived at the Côté Canal bed & breakfast with his owner. He could usually be seen lounging half-asleep on a windowsill facing the Groenerei canal.
In media, Fidèle appeared in a TV ad for Godiva Chocolatier and in the beginning of the movie In Bruges.
A very nice photo of Fidele, a yellow labrador retriever, taking a nap at the window still. It is a nice day. The windows have a nice green colour that match the ivy that crawls down around the sleeping dog.
