I'm once again open for 3D games work if you need environments, weapons, props, materials/textures, or general hard surface modeling done!

ooookay i really need clients. gulp. me when i need to earn 1500 usd in 3 weeks... rts appreciated

we've created a no AI notice to reassure people seeing our trailers and games with hand drawn lettering and a relaxing cute fox, and it's also up on itch in multiple formats* for anyone to use: eniko.itch.io/cute-fox-no-... *with/without fox, transparent/opaque, in 4k, 2160p, 1440p, 1080p, and 720p

i'll do another proper announcement post later around primetime but the no AI notice with cute fox is up on itch now: eniko.itch.io/cute-fox-no-...

RT if you don't use AI for coding

I feel like more and more people are getting weirdly hung-up on there needing to be some kind of lore explanation or justification for why a new thing made for a sequel isn't in the previous games.

You might have seen the original "no genAI seal" by @kanaratron.bsky.social. I've made the icon into a set of assets in both PNG and vector formats that can be more widely used in different contexts. You can find them here: www.joramwolters.com/no-gen-ai-ico/

Game industry - don't tell me you liked my video - I don't care - get the fuck off twitter This election cycle Elon Musk doubled his contributions to around 1/2 billion dollars including for some of the most vile ads - he gave $5m to a Vivek PAC for instance He is limiting Starlink to aid Russia

Figures that I'd get sick right after my birthday

The full team was like 1000 people. People outside of the “core team” did some major heavy lifting. This is outsourcing. What you are doing is outsourcing and then downgrading their contributions. There is nothing innovative about this.

Today: "Billionaire former dev whose engineering firm has been mismanaged to the point it has to vibe-code a launcher takes offense at AI-critique of popular developer that every developer that started since 2015 or so adores; Elon Musk gets involved to support the side that is obviously wrong."

If you dislike AI please stop saying AI can code now. Just because it can generate code that works for some loose definition of the word works doesn't mean it can code because coding is so much more than that. Please, I'm begging you, you do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to them

I’m sorry but this “core team” stuff has reached a level of absurdity. You can’t say this shit about a game that used hundreds of contractors.

Uploaded a new version of the retro shader. drive.google.com/file/d/1czQ5... - Fixes emissive casting light on surfaces - Adds/demonstrates a workaround for Mist pass (which otherwise doesn't play nicely w/ Ray Portal BSDF) #blender #cg #retro

ARE YOU A 3D MODELER WHO LIKES MODELING SIMPLE ANIME CHIBI HAIR? CAN I PAY YOU TO DO IT FOR ME? I have way too much on my todo list, and hoping to find someone help lighten my load a bit and take care of this task for me!

In case anyone else wants to mess with it: drive.google.com/file/d/1czQ5...

updated the #WifeRadiant website with a Quickstart guide written by @adorablesergal.neocities.org and a Features page! both pages are still work-in-progress and will see updates soon. #leveldesign #leveleditor #quake #lowpoly #gamedev wiferadiant.org

working on full scene export features for #WifeRadiant

I have people who follow me who iv unfollowed due to them being ok with ai with game dev and this why I think very little of you. We all have to breathe this fucking air and I would like less generators going so you cannot pay people or put less effort in.

The devs who say they need to use genai to code a little faster should know they are helping to normalise tools that physically harm others. There is so many costs many will just not think about but it’s there and why I’m not going to suport your games if your using it.

happy 19th birthday to The Orange Box 🎉

32 years ago today, we held the launch party for DOOM II at the Limelight in NYC, a former church. Happy birthday to DOOM II, but also, happy birthday to the Super Shotgun, the be-all and end-all of many a monster.

getting an order in juuuust under the wire for a new sketchbook for @lightboxexpo.com! Volume 2 of WIP, a monument to messy, painful, extremely human process:

The bad part about me wanting to make a game with strafe jumping/bunny hopping is that I can't actually test if it's working myself. I just never got the hang of doing it despite the hundreds of hours I have in Half-Life and other games that allow it

HALL-oween part 4, making a scene with every other day using #ScytheEditor for all geometry in #UnrealEngine I need more books! #gamedev #UE5 #gameart

People ask me what Scythe is capable of. Here it is in the hands of an industry veteran where he made everything in Scythe.

God I have really been on a classic Id FPS kick lately

hot scoops on how horrible the s&box people are. worth a look if that engine has ever interested in you. always worth not driving into a tar pit www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezAd...

this seems to be an increasingly common story wrt art/games made w ai - authors are ashamed, but not enough to keep em from making the thing/showing it off. take it from someone dumb enough to be a game dev: you need to make work whose process is something you take pride in or you will eat yourself

"AI lets you focus on the higher level ideas!!" because we all grew up dreaming of becoming managers and CEOs we all know the real artists at the very highest level are the shareholders, famously full of amazing ideas

Little test: importing the rendered layers & JSON files into Godot. It uses a shader that positions quads in screen space and puts them at specific depth values. Pretty much just works!

FurAffinity (a furry focused online art gallery) is looking for funding after refusing to comply with advertiser demands. And oh boy are some of those advertiser demands are pretty ridiculous.

Here's a quick flythrough of my entry for the Quake Rooftops Jam. Pretty awesome what you can do in Quake with modern tools! Music by @carsonmusic.bsky.social. #ScreenshotSaturday

man i hate when someone (even an ai hater) starts saying/warning that it's actually very competent in some particular area now because all it means is they identified an area where their personal bar for competency is low. the shit isn't good for anything there's just things you don't mind being bad

Quake Rooftops is out now! Download below and go gib some shamblers! www.slipseer.com/index.php?re...
