Time to start over here after leaving Instagram! I'm a hobbyist photographer mainly focused on naturescapes, playing with infrared films lately. I also draw stuff on occasion.

I'll start posting some photos from the past few years, see you around! 👋

Internet ne pouvait pas se passer beaucoup plus longtemps d’un iceberg des jeux de pêche. Tout le monde le savait, mais personne n’osait s'y risquer ! Bref, on a pris une décision.

Bien des mois plus tard, voici le Monstre: notre vidéo la plus chill ET la plus inconcevable.

Un poisson portant des lunettes de soleil se tient à la surface de l'eau. Il lève une main au ciel et tient dans l'autre une sorte de cigare. La partie immergée de son corps est un squelette. Autour de lui, au milieu de l'océan, flottent plusieurs icebergs en forme de têtes de poisson. Le poisson est tiré de la pochette du jeu Fish (1988).

Once again, genAI comes to the rescue of something that was never a problem, nor should it ever be

Conveying concepts to your team members is simple, plain communication. It's the most basic of soft skills. If you can't do that, wtf are you doing working with people in a creative industry?

Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

A comparison between Hornet from Silksong and Hugo from Titeuf (french comic book). The resemblance is striking. Coincidence? I think not.

If you needed another reason to buy Gunner Heat PC, they recently did an interview on AI usage in gamedev and their response is absolutely worth highlighting:

"First of all, the proliferation of LLMs and other generative AI products is an active, top-down consolidation of power by tech capital."
Josh: “Radian’s approach to AI in development can be summed up as total rejection. We don’t use it, we prefer our contractors not use it, and we consider it a problem when others adopt it in the game development field. I’ll try to give some context on this. First of all, the proliferation of LLMs and other generative AI products is an active, top-down consolidation of power by tech capital. These big companies, already unaccountable for how they mistreat both their workers and their customers, are pushing these products in the hopes that they will become a core tool in the work process. That gives them the ability to demand any concession they desire, and it removes the ability for the people doing the actual labor – ourselves – to negotiate that relationship. As one of our members put it to me recently, “AI is an industrial relations issue.” If the tech bro CEOs have their way, the next generation of game developers (and all other white-collar professions) will be useless without a subscription-based chatbot offering advice. We would rather see our colleagues using open-source tools and their own brains to operate, with full control over the process and the results. This sentiment is shared by plenty of other developers whom I respect.

Ils ont fait une cagnotte pour aider à payer les frais de justice.

Okay so, for the release of Pix Eliz next month, I decided to try something: every day, I will add one pixel on her hat by wishlist.

See under: 16 wishlists.

Let's make a stupidly long hat!

After a year commited to a single project, it feels good to finish something 😀
