Current state of Iron Vigil, the GBA game I’m making

Super Mario World was easily the best feeling 2D mario. It looks so damn good, still to this day.

But the overall platforming is just way less interesting than SM3. SMW starts very strong but it doesn’t end up surpassing the overall quality of SM3.

@TrungTPhan It must happen.

@novelgremreaper @Kotaku Your analogy sucks.

It's interesting. I am a big proponent of AI-usage of vidoegames, but mostly to make human craft faster.

A good example - in my game, AI has helped me make assets, write the engine/code, but I'm finding that I still need to craft the levels (still via prompting.. but this takes a lot more time).

An AI game, to me, loses some appeal when it focuses on size. "2x the size of Skyrim" actually makes me less interested. The primary parts of Skyrim that are interesting to me are the human-designed areas. And handcrafting a world that big takes a long time - even with AI tools.

Making a large world that is largely procedurally generated (or.. probabilistically generated?) is less interesting to me.

@JNavok I can't imagine living my life like the people who are writing/speaking in this article.

Enjoy the game. Stop the purity tests.

@cycling776 Dude its for 4 year olds

You can just do things now.

My daughter has been having some trouble with anxiety before school. So I created a little "school practice" game she can use to get comfortable with school routine, improve at Spanish, and help her process the school routine.

This is now her favorite game on iPad. And it has no ads, she can request new features, and it's educational.

@BenjiBacker Pretty much this.

@mikepat711 Maybe they moved to a model with smaller context window?

@micsolana I am reporting anyone I see using AI immediately to Bernie Sanders

I am playing Halo 2 on Xbox Live via my Retroid Pocket 6 at 120fps.

This is amazing.

[Kyle Blanchard @KyleBlanchard_]

@NYCMayor Just use a different search engine?

[Kyle Blanchard @KyleBlanchard_]

@mikepat711 There is a potential future where instead of interacting with others, we just have our AI bots interact and figure shit out so I don't have to interact with humans at all

[Kyle Blanchard @KyleBlanchard_]

Music was most exciting part of this.

[Bethesda Game Studios @BethesdaStudios]

Today we're sharing with you all the name of the next Elder Scrolls title (did you guess correctly?).

They should honestly have an IQ test before you’re allowed to post on X

Thought of a nice workaround for all the people freaking out about the new @Apple MacBook Pro touch screen. What if you just didn’t touch it????
