I preferred BotW and didn't finish TotK (yet), so I'd definitely start there. It's a simpler game on a smaller scale. TotK can feel overwhelming with the building mechanics and the massive map which also spans the sky and underground.

That is a great question and I'm struggling to think of an answer. Answers to queries are slightly faster with a LLM and some repetitive tasks can be offloaded, but the most commonly cited LLM use cases of auto-complete and project generators have already existed for years.

Nice - I love to track a game through development so can definitely see a nice community building around in development games. Get on the journey with the creator as it moves towards release.

Interesting read, albeit a biased source. This line is key "agents are still only capable of handling modestly small-ish to medium-esque tasks at a time". I suspect the 80/20 rule to bite pretty hard with LLM based AI, especially on complex projects, and somewhere in that 20% lies true usefulness.

Looking nice Thomas and a great game to use for your screenshot. I'm working on a game at the moment, Uneed Games could be a nice place to launch it. Is the plan to only showcase completed games or capture games earlier in the development process to drive Steam wishlists?

Had that experience with Raygun when they implemented what amounted to a 10x price hike - had to go and update a bunch of projects but it became a point of principle. Also a big part of the reason why tools which facilitate self-hosting, like Coolify, are proving so popular.

If you own rokerreport.com or similar you can switch to using that instead of the bsky handle.

Good to see RR on here!

The AI examples I see are typically "generate some code to solve a well known software problem" whereas really the job is to take the unique problems of many customers, design a solution which satisfies all of them, integrate that with existing solutions and distribute it without getting in the way.

I do think AI will completely change the way software is built but if it was as easy as outsourcing to an army of bots then all software would already be outsourced to the cheapest labour markets where the concise and accurate requirements of non-devs could be built for a fraction of the cost.
