As some of you already know, my little brother has a rare cancer. Less than 200 people are recorded having it since the 70's. In just a month, it's progressed to stage 3. He's only 20. It's been SO hard. If my game dev advice was ever useful to you, please consider: www.mealtrain.com/trains/y5z8yy

This is an example where the problem is not so much the capabilities of LLMs as it is the fact that we have independently normalized a widespread culture of acceptable lying

So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.

If true, then fucking yikes.

I love when I can see the work in a piece of art. Practical effects in film, brush strokes on canvas, strange sounds in music, "impossible" visuals in games.

Yeah Godot is a great place to start learning gamedev. GDScript is a comparatively easy to learn programming language. I don't know the scope of your project, but you'll be able to get an idea after spending some time with Godot. And if I'm not mistaken, rpg maker also switched to Godot.

Bluesky's cropping messes up some captions, but there's a fair bit of behind the scenes details if you continue watching 👍

If anyone wants evidence of the unreliability of Google's "AI Overview", here it is

I used Google to try to find a story I wrote on the Southport attack for the New York Times

The AI Overview claims there are no results for the search, but the first search result is the article I was looking for

The Design Den and IntoGames discord servers might be the closest ones that fit your description. (If you're already part of these servers I'm sorry for the notification 🫣 )
