many of my favourite games were made using free asset packs, stock RPG maker assets, stuff bought off asset stores. If you abandon caring about the process and just AIgen garbage, people will know - not just because of how it looks, but because your lack of interest in your own work will be evident

"But as a solo dev--" You must learn the power of your own limitations. If your art is crap, either get better at art, figure out a way to make its crappiness look intentional, or ask for help.

For reasons unknown, the Portal mod I worked on has been prevented from releasing for several months. It really sucked having my level design work stuck in limbo like this, especially when we're intentionally not sharing screenshots of that part of the game.

Completed Fan-Made Portal Remake In Limbo Due To Valve

Portal: Alive & Kicking had Valve’s blessing and even access to Portal 2’s source code, but that same arrangement now has the team sitting on their hands

are young people today aware that there was an active effort 20-25 years ago to stop depicting smoking as cool and glamorous because people got tired of watching their loved ones die of cancer and heart disease from something preventable? seems like classic history repeating itself stuff

Olivia Hill@machineiv.bsky.social · 3w ago

I genuinely hate the push to make smoking a thing again. I have watched so many drawn out, ugly, painful deaths from smoking. It makes everything disgusting. It enslaves us to the worst kinds of corporations. There’s ZERO positive here.

Thank you all for 300+ sales! I'm investing some of that money into a Mac, so hopefully Clover will be coming to all platforms soon. If you're enjoying the game and haven't done so already, consider leaving a review! It helps a lot with visibility.
