This indie team is making a game where you play as a robot vacuum cleaner trying to clean every inch of the house before time runs out

- 48 levels across 8 unique settings
- Zen mode if you prefer no timer
- There are cats

Would you play this? It's called VacuuBot.

@NotSoLittleC Tbh, I agree with John Romero in that AI NPCs is a good use of the tech once it gets there, achieving a level of immersion that's not otherwise been possible. Not every use case of AI in games is unethical, it's not that black & white. The alternative is tech stagnation 👎

@Sammakins Congrats!

[Stanith @Stanith]

@NotSoLittleC Thanks for sharing, companies that treat staff this way need to be exposed for sure. We can only hope that they'll reconsider how they treat people since your story has spread 😅

[Stanith @Stanith]

@NotSoLittleC @AnchorPoint_Inc Congrats! 😄

@TheJackyMartin The reality of video game marketing these days is that you probably need to pay influencers.

[Stanith @Stanith]

@jackie_codes Disagree (as it's presented as a binary choice 😄). You need to be extremely knowledgeable about the particular genre of game you're developing (which probably means putting the hours into those games), but not necessarily have played a lot of games in general imo.

@igdmag Unity at work currently, but Unreal is always my first choice otherwise and what I use in my spare time for any prototyping etc.

[Jacky Martin @TheJackyMartin]

In 2023 we worked on ~20 game projects simultaneously.

The ones that did well on any social media platform had a very distinctive style.

Answer me this.

What's more valuable than a great vision for your game? 🧵👇

If I have to pay a boomer 10x what he paid for his house, he can pay me 1000x what I paid for my #bitcoin.

@ZssBecker Congrats!

@mattgamedevguy I've had lots of success asking it how to do things in both UE5 and Unity, and it's saved heaps of time where I'd have to otherwise spend ages trawling through documentation or forums. I'd say it depends on what you're asking it, and it helps if you already know how to code.

@gunsnrosesgirl3 Those with extreme levels of wealth paying considerably lower rates of tax than everyone else.

[Stanith @Stanith]

@IMMalik1312 @gunsnrosesgirl3 I'm genuinely curious as to which countries 🤔 I can only think of ones where it's the other way around (majority of population consider those ethical, but it remains illegal) off the top of my head.

@charlteon Touché 😆

I witnessed a similar interaction irl between two game dev friends at a pub once:

Friend 1: Down or gay!!
Friend 2: 😁
Friend 1: Oh... 😬
