By now I spent over two years rebuilding Terminal Velocity purely from being able to read the files and play the game. I needed *zero* AI for this. Just my experience and skills. If you're doing something as a hobby and for the love of it, that's exactly where you are free of AI. *Why use it*?!
A hobby and labor of love with quirks and issues is fine. Outlier’s attitude towards AI is not. Everything is NOT currently made with AI. We do NOT have to accept or get over people using AI. AI is built on theft & abuse. It’s built to take jobs. It’s put in poor & BIPOC neighborhoods. NO AI.

Well the secret's out today! I can officially announce that I'm working on this game as a level designer!! It's a huge honor to work alongside the genius guys from @thirtythreegames.bsky.social They inspire me every day. Can't wait for yinz to see the results of all this passion, work, and skill.
REBOUNDER. A new game developed by ThirtyThree, published by Aggro Crab. Rebounder is a hand-crafted precision platformer about a roughneck worker recruited for a hazardous job on a distant planet. Nail the run. Deliver your line. Dropping 2027.
Well, I've finally signed up to see a therapist again. This one has a waitlist because I wanted someone a bit more experienced who specializes in cPTSD, so it'll be about a month and a half before I can see him, but I hope he can help. I'm tired of being a mess and a drain on my friends.

A difference between them that really made sense to me is that PTSD tends to be focused on a particular trauma, whereas CPTSD pervades your entire self because it usually interrupted your entire development process. It’s in your whole personality.
The distinction between PTSD and CPTSD that clicked best with me was from Pete Walker's CPTSD book, where he delineated that a core difference is that PTSD feels like an external locus, an outside danger. CPTSD is PTSD that you *blame yourself for*. The call comes from inside the house.
I tried out Torment Hexus on stream today and ended up with the silliest build I've had so far. Red Tape is now a screen-wide nuke that cascades into free mana -> more debuffs -> more damage. This beat the final boss in 3 rounds.
working on a theory that there is an inverse relationship between the quality of a fantasy game's writing and how heavily it features generic "bandits" whose only motivation is yum yum love evil and robbing
It's going to take some doing, because this is a bunch of stuff I've never interacted with before, but if I can get this figured out the RPG shuffler might be about to get way way stupider.
