We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games!
Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI.
You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:-

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.
Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it.
It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.

I'm choosing to be joyful today as an act of rebellion. And it's not even hard to feel that way. My life is full of people who love me. I found them all myself.

after a certain situation happening I realized the cursed problem of social media (at least for myself) - I'm using it to try and reach out to people to escape a feeling of doom, but get bombarded by more doom instead

Prototyped some more VR UI interactions, like tabbing, and inventory slots. The items seamlessly transition between 2D/3D, and pop out with an awareness of how the player would most likely hold them.

all art is made from spite or horniness, and a computer cannot be spiteful or horny, so a computer should never make art

Just Dance has always been in rotation with my kids, and it was fun to chat with Ubisoft for @crossplayblog.bsky.social about its enduring legacy and making "dance moves" that appeal to people young, old, and even those unable to (or don't want to) stand patrickklepek.substack.com/p/how-just-d...
How Ubisoft's Quirky Just Dance Series Has Charmed Kids and Adults For 15 Years
When my children need to get the wiggles out, Just Dance delivers. I asked Ubisoft how it's managed this pop music sensation since its 2009 debut.

just had a dream that the long dark had a spring region with a nuclear power plant in the middle
it looked like British countryside, was nice and green and blooming
I wonder what was the downside of it

I don't think we're ready yet to talk about just how badly game dev teams are ran. AA/A, Indie, Publishing - all of them. The amount of money and energy wasted through bad planning, poor communication and sheer incompetence is staggering.
Games don't need to be this expensive or exhausting to make.

i strongly feel we need more RPGs that do the opposite of scratching players egocentric power fantasies
More players need to deal with their character not being the central focus no matter their choices. I want it to happen far more often.
Also let characters fall in love with people who are not the player character
