Especially when how much free for use stuff is out there. Sure, it can be hard to sort out the AI generated gunk, but thereβs lots of license free art AND music for games out there!

Same sentiment but for "promotional artwork".
Again, you made a whole-ass video game. That's an incredible amount of work, but I see what's clearly gen AI promo art or screens and I'm out.
Creative folks, don't underestimate how much using AI "tools" makes your *actual work* look suspect. π
Have a thing out in the universe Iβm really hoping to hear good news about this week.
If you can send a little bit of your energy my way, Iβd appreciate it. β€οΈ
Yeah, some of the panel discussions looked interesting to me, but Iβve always seen it as largely a networking event and itβsβ¦ *really* absurdly expensive if thatβs your main goal/purpose.
The whole festival shift also kinda reminds me of E3βs final death throes, so guess weβll see how it pans out.
You know itβs been 16 years in this industry for me and Iβve still never been?
Somehow Iβm not sure Iβm missing out on much, even though Iβm working the whole event from home this year.
WHAT IS LIFE

Will never say no to more PoGo friends π

While I wonβt be at GDC next week (π), I WILL be at ECCC most of today being a nerd.
If you spot me and want to say hi, please do! Happy to yap community, dumb Dragon Age stuff, and trade PoGo Pokemon that have been aging in my trainer box for a few years π
Absolutely. And the US govt is absolutely toothless when it comes to this, but we fall suit almost immediately to EUβs guidance (see GDPR).
It requires a global initiative and broad community support.
Remember when everyone lost their shit about RealID?

Maybe itβs time to lose your shit again.
I love you ππ
Heading to ECCC 2026?
Here are the Artist Alley booths we won't be missing.

That is hilarious π
Iβm so sad I wonβt be there in person. Just running things from HQ. π
Looking forward to giving hundreds of my fellow game devs anxiety at GDC. Find me around if you want one for yourself!
Truest words ever stated π©
Ohhh nooooo π I hope it arrives soon!
A much better use of both of our time, really!
Agreed, you should just plane hop up here and cruise the meaderies with me.
All the folks who worked hard on it deserve to have their work seen. And to take capture of it before itβs gone forever.
I wish Iβd have done more of that with Concord before we were taken offline (thought some of the stuff I worked on was months ahead on schedule and never made live).
Less than 48 hours left!
With not one BUT TWO stretch goals unlocked today -Character Customization & Maid Outfit- the next one is on reach: SEASONAL DLCs!!
Thank you all for your support!

Quite literally, until you have 10 reviews Steam doesn't surface you at all.
Those first 10 reviews change everything. If you see a game with less than 10 reviews, you are being shown a life you can dramatically improve.
I cannot stress how perfectly this is pulled straight from my head.
#Bellassan is a weird ship, but itβs my ship, and Iβm so grateful @el-las-in.bsky.social has been able to bring it to life for me!! You never disappoint, my friend!
Grats! I've got like three bars left but have to do that work thing tomorrow.
SO CLOSE
I'm so sorry, rosie. Even when you know it's coming, it doesn't make it any easier.
He was clearly the most beloved dust kitty. π
Okay so Iβm really enjoying Midnight in WoW, especially the story thus far.
And I love my boy Arator.
BUTβ
Iβm still bitter about his stupid hair and I donβt think Iβm ever gonna be over it. π€£
Okay BUTβ
why are you so cool? π₯°
These three π
I kinda need them in like the worlds most awkward family portrait now lol
Big if true.
