Don’t support big company. Big company don’t like you. Support small artist. Or just save your money.

Reminder: if you are worried about AI replacing you as an artist: don’t use AI voices,
If you don’t want composing to be handed over to AI: don’t use it to write text.
You get the idea.

If you value your job: protect others jobs too.

If you’re looking for something to play while waiting for Silksong, may we suggest HeistGeist - a story-focused cyberpunk RPG with cards?
Granted, it’s a completely different kind of game, but it’s currently on sale on both Steam and Nintendo Switch.

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:

At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

AI impoverishes us at every step of the process:
- data centers pollute our environment
- energy use drives up costs
- content theft robs creators of income
- the actual output is used to displace workers and depress wages
- using it harms our mental health and impairs our competence
- the flood of AI slop is damaging our sociopolitical landscape

All in service of making a worse product - and world - to enrich a handful of already spectacularly wealthy people

Digging through old files made me try this meme trend. Very first prototype from 2021 vs. the 2024 release. Surprising how much stuff survived until the very end. #indiedev #gamedev

It's International Dog Day today and that's the perfect time to celebrate our two furry friends who were instrumental to the game's development - Boba and Lujza. They even made it into the game! They're the best girls.

Not exactly upcoming anymore, but we released a game on Switch last week. And it's also available on Steam.

Get well soon!
