CAPTAIN WAYNE IS OUT!!

I had an absolute blast doing VFX for this game, and I'm super proud of some of the weapon effects I cooked up! Go play it, go ogle the vibrant style and get absorbed by the addicting gameplay loop!!

Mainstream art getting worse is still a bad thing even if you can search for good quality in less popular stuff

Because the mainstream is where most of us started before we became enthusiasts. If that stuff gets worse, fewer people will ever bother to dig deeper.

No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck.

Yes, the way you're using it too. You're not special.

"She probably doesn't mean me"

I do.
I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this;

most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue!

well, we do. so fuck off.

We are democratizing art. No longer will you have to pay someone who owns a data center just to generate pictures. With a pencil and notepad that costs less than a dollar, you too can create Artisanal Imagery.
The word around town is that the next big thing is Artisanal Imagery, hand-made visuals that you simply have to own if you don't want to be left behind

Yearly reminder that every single paywalled article can be read for free by entering the link into archive.is - and chances are that someone already did it before you thought to.

There is no reason you ever need to miss out on an article because of paywalling ever again, as long as this link works.

Vernal Edge is neat, this one's more of a character-action metroidvania with a 3D overworld where you fly between floating islands in an airship, made by some of the same folks who works on Pseudoregalia, and I'm genuinely surprised it's not a bigger hit.

Itch is one of the most important resources on the web right now to get started as a games developer, if not _the_ most important resource. To see it struggling to provide its services because AI companies don't want to respect the boundaries of the internet makes me extremely angry.

We're back online. Note: We have been experiencing elevated slamming by AI crawlers and bad bots which is why you may have seen the 429 "Too Many Requests" Error. Working on mitigation.

The best bit of advice I've ever heard on the whole originality thing was "everything's been done before, but no one is ever going to do it like how YOU do it. So do it and show people how you would do it." And tbh that sticks in my head to this day whenever I think my concepts sound derivative.
Nothing is original.

You don't HAVE to be original. You're driving yourself crazy. Everything has already been done

Just be yourself. Choose something unique to you and you'll do great

Unique ≠ original. Just FYI.
