@Nicensteiner @JonasTyroller Exactly this, and only haters are blind to this fact.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@SlothyLabs @JonasTyroller I don't see why any dev would be against the use of ai. It is the best tool that has become available to us. AI has leveled the playing field, giving us solo devs the ability to compete some with aaa. If you don't adapt to ai use, you will be left behind.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@DSQT_Dev @JonasTyroller So tell me why exactly should ai be disclosed? Seems like just another bs excuse for haters to review bomb. It's our business how our games are made. It's like asking a seller where they get their products from.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@VistaLargaGames @JonasTyroller Well said brother! 👏

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@JonasTyroller I look at it this way, if a game is good, looks good, plays good then who cares how it was made? The only ones who will care are the natural haters who are jealous of a dev's success. It's our business how our games are made. Devs should not have to disclose any of that.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@JonasTyroller @IndieGameJoe The sadness, is taking a look at real revenue after years of working on a project. I'm glad AI is here to at least help cut the development time in half. At least for us solo devs. The importance of time isn't realized until one gets older.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@IndieGameJoe Not just speed, I learned a lot of great coding tricks from the AI, it simply works. The making of the game is not always magic, there's a lot of headaches involved. We won't even talk about how it effects our lives. In the end, 90% of us realize it was wasted time. The sad part.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

No matter what dream it is you have, just remember to STAY FOCUSED.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@Marijenburg That should be the least of your worries. Scary is looking up the salary and revenue numbers for the vast majority of indie game devs. Now want terrifying? Looking back in 15 years from now, broke, years of life wasted, trying to figure what happened to your life doing game dev.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

Revenue is motivation, in a different form. Want better games? Support the devs. #SupportDevs #GameDev #IndieDev #GamingCommunity

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

After 14+ years of game dev and 50+ published games with nearly 1 million downloads, I only wish I knew what I do now, but back then. However, we can't go back, but we can move forward.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

Those who don't take advantage of the power of AI, will be left behind. Learn to adapt and adapt now, or others will. Don't loosen bolts by hand, use a wrench. #indiedev #gamedev #ai

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@MjTheHunter Nope, not worried about AI. In fact, l am greatful for AI, it has changed my life. AI is simply a tool, im not going to loosen bolts by hand if wrenches exists. AI has helped many devs make far greater games than they were previously able to.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@Phantasmerie There's nothing wrong with using AI, it is simply a tool. If wrenches exist, are you going loosen bolts by hand? Making a game, especially solo takes long enough as it is. Anything to speed up time and eliminate headaches is an absolute asset.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@IndieGameJoe @junklab_au As someone who's sailed for years and owned sailing yachts, this looks fun to me.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@RinoTheBouncer It's not so much an issue with PC games since most are free of that. On the mobile market, ads and iap are a lose lose situation for both devs and players. For it to change, devs need to switch to premium models and players need to be willing to pay devs for their hard work.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@IndieGameJoe That seems pretty ludicrous. As you mention, you only have so much free time in a day.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@IndieGameJoe @RealDeadPixel Exactly 💯 People need to stand up and grow a back bone. All fun and games until authorities show up at their door and the handcuffs go on. Making threats is a crime and they foolishly type it out so you have it all right there.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@RealDeadPixel What does anyone's push back achieve? That is just a flat out ignorant statement.

[NewHopeGames @TimNHG]

@IndieGameJoe I once had someone write a 1 star review on one of my Google Play Store games. It read "I am going to shoot you". Google now REQUIRES devs to put their address in plain view on their paid apps. This puts devs safety at risk,many of us work from home. I dare a coward mf to show up
