If you consider random NPC dialogue "boring and unimportant" and you're okay with relegating that to gen AI, frankly I can't trust that the rest of your narrative is any good either.

Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.

Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

Demonschool's credits show rest of games industry how it's done

aftermath.site/demonschool-...
a screenshot from demonschool's credits outlining the roles of brent porter, 3d art lead ("Did most of the 3D modeling and rigging as well as creating most backgrounds. Also developed the lighting scheme and the visual style used in tiling and texture work. Created a number of the 2D battle and NPC sprites and visual effects, as well as preproduction concept art, including determining the final proportions of battle characters.") and catherine menadbe, 2d art lead ("Created most avatars and poses, all overlays and menu art, the game logo, and well as a large number of 2D battle and NPC sprites. Responsible for the look and flow of almost all UI. Did 3D modeling and texture work for the clubhouse, main map, and several other locations. Also created the hero art for tradeshows and platforms.")

this is a real indie dev horror story

an unorthodox game getting pre banned by steam and the team patently and methodically attempting to get in touch with a human at valve to sort it out and just getting nowhere

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.

If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

This thing took so much work, from so many people - RPGs have so many little working parts, and we did so much to try to make this world feel alive. The team is just vibrating right now, seeing how this all goes, but for now it's great to just have it out there, in people's hands.

Hero's Adventure is 50% OFF: store.steampowered.com/app/1948980/...

One of the best RPGs I ever played, got over 130 hours in it. It's an open-world martial arts RPG with unparallel levels of freedom - join or destroy any faction, siege / save towns, become emperor, hunt secret arts, marry, etc...
