60% drop in reviews if people even smell AI on your game - full supports the investors, developers, and publishers that took a hard "no gen-AI" stance, despite grifters' proclamations that they were "going to be left behind".

Someone actually crunched the numbers, and using GenAI can decrease reviews for indie game on Steam (a useful proxy stat for sales) by as much as *58%* 🤖

I figure, if you can see weapon stats in the weapon inventory - you don't need to have them in the cockpit view, no? Talking special effects, damage stats, capacity and such things. I like how this inventory is solving many problems at once

It presently looks TERRIBLE but since the weapons are random now, you gotta be able to have MORE. So there's a UI now to swap weapons around. It's a bit clunky because I need to think about controller support as well. But either way. MORE PEW PEWS! #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev
