thanks for doing this! my wife @natikatz.bsky.social and i released Flowerdrops (s.team/a/3708530) last year, and we're currently working on our new game CATCH THE CLOWN (s.team/a/4800260). we have never and will never use genAI!

CATCH THE CLOWN on Steam

CATCH THE CLOWN is a surrealist "action real-time-strategy" adventure set within a hostile piece of 90s art software. Follow your heart.

Consumer options being reduced, no competition, and monopolisation of the means to market has never reduced prices for any product ever. People really need to think about this properly before reporting and sharing it. The person saying this has been been ragebait for weeks.

I feel like an issue that would connect well with voters would be doing anything at all to slow the current progression toward "absolutely everything now is a scam"

in genuine shock that even a CEO, the lowest form of life on this earth, thought this would be a good look. they thought they were gonna get an "epic clapback" moment or some shit

Mitch Dyer@mitchyd.bsky.social · 5d ago

this CEO comment is how you know with 1000% certainty Stella is right

Saber PR responded to my post by saying that the story was written by people and no writers were replaced, buuuuut also that the game uses AI generated text and voices. C’mon man lmao

Saber Interactive denies replacing writer with ChatGPT on its new driving game, but says it will use AI for dialog 'as the number of passengers in the game is infinite'

Despite the admission, there's currently no AI disclosure on the Rideshare "Stimulator" Steam page.

Stella Sacco@antlervel.vet · 6d ago

I didn’t even see this had been announced. I was lead writer on this one! And Saber replaced me with ChatGPT midway through development. All the passenger voices were AI too. Either they changed direction at some point or they’re not disclosing it on Steam

the place that is supposed to be evaluating me for autism now says they "can't" do it without using AI to "summarize" my notes. they would, however, like to "hear my concerns!" if you have articles on hand about ways that AI summaries have gone wrong a medical environment, please link them 🫠

The specific focus in this video on the way these tools get under your skin and train you to depend on them is an aspect I personally find existentially terrifying. youtu.be/TtvICev9sBE?...

Big thanks to @duncanrobson.com for making the trailer and doing the VO in a pinch, all my pals at forums.insertcredit.com who donated their time to vet games, and @videogameworkers.bsky.social for creating the hardship fund and asking me to run this bundle. Now let's get those numbers UP.

In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...

Maaaan the Halo remake is exhaustingly Modern in its bullshit... Cortana has all kinds of extra tutorial dialogue. The intro of invisible elites, instead of being a scary moment of guys suddenly dropping dead around you, is her going "Invisible elites!! Look for distortions in the air!" Christ alive

i'm done

I’m sorry I’m sorry but I can’t get over how the Halo remake manages to embody the mistakes of both old AND new Xbox

Chris Plante@plante.bsky.social · 4w ago

Want a primer on Xbox leadership's mistakes? Look closely at the new Halo, and you'll see layoffs, botched business strategies, and illogical investments. Halo is Xbox in microcosm.

Lemme tell you about the angel of history being blown backwards into the future: The shackles these people have been put in are Hiatt brand, same company founded in 1780 to mass produce shackles for slaver ships.

This is fucking terrifying

"Cognitive surrender" is a fascinating concept to think about the impact of AI as it exists under reactionary tech Preventing people from thinking for themselves and imagining different worlds is a godsend for authoritarians thenextweb.com/news/wharton...

I repeat. Roblox is the worst thing that's happened to the video game industry.

My opinion: Roblox is the worst thing that's ever happened to the video game industry.

Bought a Switch 2 camera for $10. How long before I am given the opportunity to map my face onto Wario's? When will it finally be MY TIME on this god forsaken Earth?!?!?!

Kids need/deserve traumatic films. Films that show death or lasting consequences that aren't resolved almost instantly. Fear, anger, grief and frustration should be part of kids movies. Kids arent stupid, they feel big emotions just like adults, they deserve to see those experiences reflected back.
