I make games and sometimes weird stuff.
gameplay programmer - Trying to improve on my #RealtimeVFX and Tech Art Skills. (other art too but thats just me coping)
25 of my favorite games - 2026 ver.
(not ordered)
some are also not my favorites anymore, but impacted me during their time.
3. things:
- ask me anything
- guess my age based on these :)
- anime 5x5 board in replies
@KENOMA_art Copy pasting is better from the enviroment and most likely with consent.
AI is neither.
Obviously that are just 2 points and it is a oversimplification but yeah... these 2 points alone can be a argument for people to make it unusable.
Instead of making things affordable inside the Union, so people will stop buying things cheaper from (mostly) China, they instead make it MUCH more expensive, so everything becomes expensive now. This only targets ordinary people, companies that sell the same stuff are unaffected

🚨 BREAKING: Government to ban under-16s from Vinted, eBay and Depop, claiming the sites can be used to groom children.
• Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy is preparing to expand the under-16s social media ban to cover online marketplaces including Vinted, eBay, Depop and Facebook Marketplace
• Officials are concerned that messaging functions on the platforms allow strangers to contact and groom children
• The Children’s Society has reported cases of young users being asked for indecent photos in exchange for money or gifts
• A government source said there is growing evidence that under-16s are accessing these services and facing potential risk
• The move follows a government consultation, appearing to show nine in ten parents back a ban, with two-thirds of young people agreeing under-16s should not use at least some platforms
• Regulations are due before the end of the year and the changes are expected to take effect in spring 2027
With AI in game dev being a super hot discussion right now, I want to see how you all feel about this.
With YUNG's Roads nearing completion, I want to be completely transparent and say that I've been using AI (Claude Opus) to complete the mod and give it some extra polish. More specifically, I've used it for the following:
- refactoring & optimizing the road generation algorithm,
- code documentation,
- in-game testing,
- creation of an in-game Road Tuning screen for power users and modpack devs that allows you to customize road parameters and see worldgen changes in real-time (it's super cool, I might post some pics below),
and, most importantly, it has allowed me to overcome some technical bugs I was never able to solve myself.
If you don't know, I've been working on this mod on and off since like 2021. The reason it was never released is because I always got bogged down when trying to perfect the road gen algorithm, and I was never able to get it to quite match my vision. A few months ago I decided to run it through Claude and lo and behold, turns out there were some obscure bugs messing up the whole thing at a fundamental level. The type of bugs I truly never would have figured out on my own. Since then, I've been working on it nearly every day (using Claude), iterating and refining it.
The core algorithm is still my own creation, and the mod's creative vision is my own. But I had to use AI to actualize my vision.
All that is to say - should I even release this mod? I genuinely think people would love it. It's a super cool mod, highly polished, highly customizable. It's not low-quality slop, I can promise you that.
But I know a lot of people in this community disagree with any game/mod where AI was used in its creation, and I really don't want to be subjected to anti-AI witch hunting. I'm not trying to get involved in drama, I just like making cool mods for you guys. So I'm curious what you guys think.
In 2 months its okay if only 1/4th of the code is AI slopped,
In 6 months its half of it,
and in 12 months they dont care at all if its fully vibecoded. (jokes on me, many people already dont care.)
I think these people dont appreciate games.
Unpopular opinion time, but anybody that actually codes and works in a development industry, and actually read this article, would agree this doesn’t matter at all.
Please stop punishing developers for using code assist tools… Punish them for generating music and art.
The Big Walk situation of using AI is understandable in my opinion (they ran to unity, they werent able to help-learning part of the engine to fix a simple "engine bug" is dumb, you want to make the game.)
- but saying that AI code is always fine is a slope downhill.
@lowend115 so valid. but i acutally hate unreal as well and for my projects godot also doesnt feel ready so im just existing in a constant state of pain.
My main issue is that we're governed by rich pigs who will die of old age in 20 years but keep on making decisions that impact mostly young and broke ppl. They literally RUINED our local economies by moving industries to Asia and are now blaming the consumers. FUCK THEM
@Lacksicle no matter if you see it as art or not, its build on mass stolen data.
yeah humans copy pasted / referenced art and code for years. But even if some people think AI and brains work Exactly the same (LMAO), its different if you look at 2-10 things and decide or eat everthing and*
