Finally publishing this one so it'll be visible from my itch page. It's still a bit messy but I'm proud of how I managed to capture some really awful memories and emotions.

Finally finished this monster piece about the Alters! This is my second big feature for Qualbert, and gets into why I want genAI out of my damn games www.qualbert.com/ai-use-in-th...

I’m Still Not Done Talking About AI Use in The Alters | Qualbert

The more we let companies use GenAI in development, the more we all stand to lose. We examine the ripple effects of AI use in games, beginning with The Alters.

Games used to be about cool stuff, now they're all about boring shit like Being On The Computer, Watching The Television, and Working™

Huuuge day for fans of bits and/or bobs!!

A mailing box holds two larger bags, one full of wooden dice, the other full of ~25mm wooden hexagon pieces. There is also one smaller bag filled with a couple of each of those and a random assortment of other pieces (including what appears to be a duck wearing a bowler hat)

Working on a little wee personal game as a distraction while I recover from covid. Spent a few hours today figuring out the mechanics for a fake street view interface with ripped panoramas

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I've decided that I think my eating pattern(picking one thing to obsess over and being super happy to cook that for weeks/months) is actually cool and based. Feels like it sorta mirrors the more seasonal diets of our agricultural and preagricultural ancestors in a neat way :)

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck.

Women only want one thing, and it's the Mach 5.
