Steam supports 29 languages ... my store page now has 29 different translations. All achievements have 29 different translations. The game has almost no text at all.

AI will enhance accessibility. And the translations seem pretty good. Not perfect, but almost for free...

WIP of the portal visuals for Helmet Head. The idea is the cyclops lines up her magical eye with the portal arch, it opens wide to fill the space, and starts up this swirly animation that shows your destionation.
Then you step into the eye...

Not complaining, just curious - but why is that game available to me on Steam and not Epic Games? Location: Germany
And thanks for the other two cool looking games this week!

I am still waiting for a tracked steam controller - because Sony already demonstrated the potential and I really wanna go there, but for now I am more than happy with these great packages. Can't wait to try eye tracking in dev!

You conformist - embrace the diversity! :D
Just kiddin, but I didn't notice. I notice a lot of the AI flaws, but never paid attention to the wheels.
They were super smart though ... brand logo shared by a ton of artists on social media.

All I'm asking for as an #indiedev is for every single person on the planet, to be sat down, individually, in front of my game, allowed to play the demo, and I get some time to beg them to purchase it.
Is that too much to ask?

Their solution for VR seems incredibly mature ... and it has eye tracking! I can't wait to get my hands on one!

I expect that "100% human made" will be a USP in the future gaming markets ...

love AI ... hate what so many companies have done with it. Ever tried to get support on eBay? ;)

The pure evil ... and Americans need to wake up, this evil won't be (and already isn't) limited to starving children they don't care for ... they invited it in, now it will be painful to get rid of!

Making a game for 3 years is passion.

Launching the Steam page 2 weeks before release isโ€ฆ optimism.

We are seeing the performance scores drop everywhere, and we need to act. You don't get a second try with kids, and we failed a lot of them already. We need to adopt learning to the new world and put enough resources into the system - 30+ class sizes? We should be at 15 top.

Ever since I started with the fish, I realized how much easier they are to animate compared to legged animals. And took a turn in development...

Have you opened them to see if they need a battery added?

PS: but I am a switcher ... so if ChatGTP got more expensive, then I definitely would use Gemini or Claude or ..., before paying more. ;)

I ask myself the same question - right now I am mostly relying on chatGPT, elevenlabs & Suno. Suno I wouldn't pay a dime more for, because I already have the music library I need. Elevenlabs I guess I would pay double for... or more when needed. ChatGPT ... 10x as much (but would unsub when no need)

I find it impossible to estimate the worth, given that we do not know the value future models will bring. But even with today's models, their ownership of the infrastructure slice alone makes me expect that to be realistic. I work with AI all day and it is a productivity booster I want to keep!

awesome - working on a math game and now I definitely will add a wombat shitting dice! thanks for the education =)

I just wonder if I can build a game with sphere and cube ... and then let the AI skin it. Might be fun. Certainly could be if the setting was more surreal to begin with, so that flaws add to the experience.

"The data is also limited to mobile data and doesnโ€™t include desktop users."

This article does make some valid points, growth will slow down on adoption, only limited people on the planet. But people making less Ghibli novelty images on mobiles does not change the productivity boost on PC.

I am sorry, but I can't find fault with automatization of these jobs. We need to fix this from a different angle - one that distributes productivity ...
