I was one of the other authors whose free games were used as a basis for this (by permission, under contract).

Read the thread for details; I agree with every word Alan has written (both the positives about the game, and the negatives about Jonathan Blow).
So, “Order of the Sinking Star” by Thekla was just announced, which takes several small free games (two of which are mine) and gives them a major graphical upgrade and mashes up their rulesets. I haven’t been very involved but it’s a great concept and looks cool.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

1. This is not what fog of war means.
2. There is no war
3. He's trying to distance himself from murders he had direct responsibility over
4. All I can think of when I hear this phrase now is Elon Musk complaining that he hates chess because it has no fog of war.
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

If you use generative AI to ‘create’ something, then present it as your own work, that is fraud and fakery of the very worst kind. Anyone who does this should be treated as a pariah by members of the creative community. I have nothing but contempt for all forms of generative AI and its acolytes.

I will never know when he gave me the shot, but I will always remember what he responded.

"My work is to ensure people are healthy, but health without happiness isn't worth much. Playing games makes people happy, doesn't it? Why don't we collaborate? I'll keep people healthy, you keep them happy."
