What type of raising demon game would we be if we didn't let the players customize their demons? Happy #screenshotsaturday ,the green skin is called Blubber and is fully legally distinct from the movie of a similar name. ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿ”

Hey everyone! For today's #screenshotsaturday we wanted to show off the prototype for entering buildings in our game! We want interiors to feel like a diorama with fun interactions. As always we're excited to show more! ๐Ÿฅ

The way to tell if code was vibe coded is to ask the programmer such as "hey, this line here, what is happening here? What is this function doing?"

The *key* element of vibe coding is that the programmer doesn't know or give a fuck what the code is doing.

Some of you will now argue it was always good, I just know it.

Two screens from the Simpsons showing marge and homer sitting on a plane with homer looking angry. Text of the first image says "come on, homer. Japan will be fun. You liked rashoman" text of the second image says "that's not how I remember it"

sorry if i'm preaching to the choir here but part of why Zohran Mamdani is such a threat to career politicians on both sides is that his campaign is visibly disproving a carefully constructed narrative- that big cities are dangerous places, and people don't care about their communities or politics

'You donโ€™t have to like all art. You donโ€™t have to be positive or negative all the time. You have to be completely, and totally honest, which is not possible unless you are also capable of being humble enough to love art for what it is: an expression of the humanity of others around you' ๐Ÿ’œ

Itโ€™s hard to escape the dawning realization that part of the goal of Googleโ€™s AI Overview is to simply eradicate the concept of anyone else having any kind of website at all.

Why click on a link & explore when Google told you the answer & you didnโ€™t know it was wrong?

These are con-artists. And I feel like I'm going crazy because so few people recognize them when it used to be a very common skill most people had!

I genuinely loved teaching programming for kids and really want the other two dev classes I teach in the summer to get enough students. Though Iโ€™m super bummed that for the game design college courses the school is requiring I teach generative ai

I teach a game writing class. Students have scripts, worldbuilding docs, treatments, etc due every week

About half the class used ChatGPT last semester even though I made it clear using an LLM = an F. When I asked why a studio would ever hire them if their work was just ChatGPT, they seemed stunned
