The honest truth of the matter is that I'm simply not as good as I need to be, in order to achieve what I want to.

Here is GPT's version for comparison. I like mine more, for all its flaws, it has soul... The one thing AI lacks. Or does it?

Made this artwork as a logo, is this a brand? I'm not sure, who it's for, as I understand it a brand is a function of marketing, which I have little interest in, but I like it none the less.

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.

Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable.

Taking a little time to count little blessings this morning 🫶

I'm seeing so many people question why Red Bull think Tsunoda isn't able to deliver in a Red Bull car. Guys, that's not what it's about. It's politics. This isn't a meritocracy. Yuki's driving isn't the problem #F1

spent some time this weekend working on art, updated my main character model and refined my pre-rendered art pipeline (new is on the right)

I came to the exact opposite conclusion 😂

4 square thumbnails, all with pretty much the same color scheme of red and teal. Top left: A minimalist/futurist portrait of a white bald head with a white circle in a black triangle for an eye. Upper right: Some architecture that reminds me strongly of the game Monument Valley. Bottom left: A low poly portrait of a man with a cap, black shades and a full black beard. Bottom Right: Something that looks like a screenshot of an isometric strategy game with the word "Wave" or "Uuaue" on top of it.

I prompted the Midjourney AI (version 5) simply "ludum dare" and this is what it came up with 😅

Thank you, had no idea this was on but always wanted to finish something for an LD, rest of my weekend sorted 👍

whipped up this little localization module, combined with chatgpt makes it too easy #gamedev

I never said a game developer shouldn't make games, and as I pointed out Blow and Diev's portfolios are more than just one or two games... It's fine for you to disagree though, I know my overrated micro games opinion goes against common wisdom.

Dief has a website, definitely worked on more than 2 games, same with Blow, check their Wikipedia article. I dunno about Wreden. I'm not convinced about common advice just to make tiny games. I released one once and I can't imagine making 20 more would have been very beneficial to myself or others.

Here's a trend I can get behind, I'd need a bigger list, so many missing

Changes not retroactive ✅
Fee not based on spyware ✅
Not applicable to personal ✅
2.5% rev share cap ✅

Crisis averted. (Still scummy, bring back the ToS-change tracker, and remove the always online req. They gonna be harvesting usage data to train AI for sure)

The retroactive terms change I see as a seperate and terrible decision. That should just never happen and terms should only change moving forward with a reasonable lead time so Devs can make informed decisions to switch.

What I don't understand is, if the subscription model isn't profitable, why not just go rev share? Devs push back against it as it will cost them more, but if a sub model is not profitable then it's just not viable for the work Unity is putting in to the engine...

Wondering why? The game Dev feed suggests reposting rather than just liking as it's apparently the better way to boost a posts visibility. Do you get bombarded with multiple reposts of the same thing?

Some more screenshots of Kero Kero Cowboy, my Game Boy Color game in development!

Bruce demands pats

I will be trying to ride this line by showing and sharing what's been made, but not for example, sharing my design doc or kanban as I develop my first release.
It's frustrating not talking about the USP's but I'll get to show it eventually, which somewhat provides drive.

"TikTokification of video games"? It doesn't even make sense... Sure use AI to compile assets based on the content the player's pursuing but don't tangentially relate it to TikTok
