To the folks who follow me here purely for game dev stuff but get personal stuff posts and reposts - I profusely apologize, I am really trying but I often remain quiet about the stuff I do.

Though, I will still make bite-sized posts about the game dev stuff.
lots of stuff finally ready. just waiting on the okay.
the anticipation is killing me.

In today's episode of AI is ruining the thing you love; Godot could really use some extra funding just to judge if something is slop because they're getting overwhelmed
Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.

If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

fund.godotengine.org
Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

Unity couldn't even dogfood their engine and ship ONE internal game project, and when they tried, they failed.

So no, I don't believe their genAI is going to yield anything remotely shippable.

They aren't 'distancing' themselves, actually. This is all we have to infer that by. This is a very inappropriate title meant to have us look the other way and make sure they get our money and info. Unless they stop entirely, fuck Discord entirely.

Working on the (re)announcement trailer again.

I definitely love how it's turning out, but if it turns out too long for BlueSky, I *will* actually be happy to re-edit it for BlueSky specifically.

Cos holy shit.

I can't stop rerolling what I've got so far!!

Discord lied.

they’re now sending scanned IDs to persona, a third party company.

“facial scans will never leave your device” -discord lmao.

Not surprised that Discord lied, but fucking FURIOUS that they're sending them to a company linked to bloody Peter Thiel.

Meaning any data given to Discord is absolutely going to be given to ICE and other similar groups.

Absolutely do NOT give your ID or face scan on Discord. It's even worse than expected. Apparently due to people bypassing current systems, they're switching to "persona" which is funded by fucking Peter Thiel.

"Man, I can't stand Booktok, they're just-"

They're just what? Huh? Increasing book sales by 50 million? Getting younger people into literature again? Sure, the new "vibe-based" stories are shit, but at least people are READING now, the *very* thing you bitched at Gen Z & up for not being into.

Hey y'all.

A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.

Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

It is, of course, getting review-bombed by racists. So maybe get it and review it to help?

Folks, if you played the demo, you ain't seen nothing! This game is immaculate & touches my soul on multiple levels. Not only is the game beautiful, the play butter smooth, you also learn histories that are hidden.
