I just remember when the roof of Notre-Dame de Paris was on fire and how every Western leader became a cultural expert and lamented the damage and how everyone donated money to rebuild it.

I am having a hard time finding a single article in any European or American publication about this.

Hey everyone!

I am open for work. Looking for contract, part-time, full-time, anything! I have been making games for close to 15 years now and am happy doing 2D art in most styles, pixel art, UI, and managing.

Here's a link to my portfolio: kyleolson.artstation.com

Since the topic is RPGs & cultural lenses, I'll repeat that Xuan-Yuan Sword 3 is a must-play in this sense store.steampowered.com/app/1638230/...

Set in the 8th century, you flee religious fanatics in Europe to pursue knowledge along the Silk Road. A wild contrast to the usual Europe-centric views

At the bottom of the blogpost, there's a small "Ask ChatGPT input". I typed "Is this blog post misleading or deceptive?"

It's nice that OpenAI includes a little "ask ChatGPT" thing at the bottom of their own bullshit so that even ChatGPT can make a statistical guess that it is indeed bullshit.

Spacefarer Games, a 1 person "indie game studio" steals Cyeides' Zera: Myths Awaken game, renamed it, recolored the textures and has it listed up on the Nintendo eShop. Spread the word that Spacefarer is a game thief!

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

Was this for the playdate perhaps? Love all the details within these 1-bit restrictions <3

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

Preorders for Prison City physical are LIVE!

This is very special to me because it's my first *me* project to get a physical release, and I'm excited that it's gotten the chance~ Also I fought for the inclusion of milkcaps!

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

It looks like your artist has made AI assisted art. I don't know if you were looking for another debacle after the SNES rpg book so soon?

Does not really feel 'passionate' at all...

Wario-like game with gameplay depend on the weight of the lot you've collected. With a piggy bank god when you can deposit and take out cash to change said weight. Maybe a bit of a metroidvania level design influence, but nothing big. Just a fun short game
