In celebration of the @godotengine plush, I animated a lil' Godot this morning! Will upload the sprite sheets soon! #pixelartist #gamedev #GodotEngine

@CrimsonDesert_ This is why I would never advocate for using AI as a 'test' art in a game. It doesn't look nearly polished enough for final, but, at a glance it looks passable enough that you miss fixing it amongst the other things you have to finalize in the chaotic march toward release.

We would like to address questions regarding the use of AI in Crimson Desert. During development, some 2D visual props were created as part of early-stage iteration using experimental AI generative tools. These assets helped us rapidly explore tone and atmosphere in the earlier phases of production. However, our intention has always been for any such assets to be replaced, following final work and review by our art and development teams, with work that aligned with our quality standards and creative direction. Following reports from our community, we have identified that some of these assets were unintentionally included in the final release. This is not in line with our internal standards, and we take full responsibility for it. We also acknowledge that we should have clearly disclosed our use of AI. While these tools were primarily used during early production, with the expectation that these assets would be replaced prior to release, we recognize that this does not excuse the lack of transparency. We sincerely apologize for these oversights. We are currently conducting a comprehensive audit of all in-game assets and are taking steps to replace any affected content. Updated assets will be rolled out in upcoming patches. In parallel, we are reviewing and strengthening our internal processes to ensure greater transparency and consistency in how we communicate with players moving forward.

@PaimaModels I love the artstyle here!! Looking great.

ok..ya esta todo configurado, ahora falta programar los eventos y hacer pruebas. Me quedaria hacer la existencia de los objetos interactuables como el procciuto para curar vida, el cuchillo, y quisas un encendedor para poder ver al inicio del juego en la parte del bosque

@zapactugta6 I wouldn't really call this too credible. There's nothing GTA-specific, no gameplay at all, and it's a scene that while looking impressive it's relatively easy to get realistic lighting like this for a single scene in UE5.

🚨 GTA VI MAJOR LEAK ALERT 🚨 A new #GTA6 gameplay video was just posted on TikTok and it looks CRAZY credible this time! 😮 Actually having serious doubts about whether this one is the real deal or just a masterpiece of a fake... The lighting and physics look next-gen. What do we think, guys? Real or another high-effort bait? 🎮 #GTAVI #RockstarGames #GTA6

Unique problems require unique solutions. I needed a way to raise these tapes a bit but didn't want to make a model exclusively for it. So I did some hackery. And it worked! (Just don't look under the table) #indiegame #indiedev

Despite Fishtronomy not being discounted on it's own during the ongoing Spring Sale (Because lil' ol' me forgot to set the discount) the bundle it's apart of, Not Thinking Straight, is! 🌠 If you think you'd like this trio of puzzle games definitely check it out! store.steampowered.com/bundle/59445/N…

So this is that DLSS 5 everyone is talking about.

Today marks the ONE YEAR anniversary of one of my favorite and simplest jam games from last year, Pocket TouHou 💙 Only like two minutes of gameplay, but I loved trying my hand at the LCD game style. You can play it for free on Newgrounds! newgrounds.com/portal/view/97… #indiegame #touhou #東方Project

Are there any good indie-dev centric communities out there? I used to be a lot more active in the space and talking to a lot of people but over the past few years I've sort of tapered off a bit because of IRL personal stuff. Still would be nice to reconnect and find new places / people!

Really loving scripting the 'dog acquired' logic. #GodotEngine #IndieDev

Screenshots from Malcade - Coming Soon! #screenshotsaturday #horrorgame

@sciencegirl I love the idea of this but these pictures just end up giving me anxiety because I live somewhere very hurricane-prone and just worry that thing will come flying through the window if it hits wrong😅Already had one close call with trees outside a couple years ago

Tree canopies turn ordinary streets into living ecosystems, cooler, greener, and dramatically better for people and nature.

Alpha vs. Current build. Malcade has been a wild ride visually but I think we’ve settled into a consistent style now. #GodotEngine #HorrorGame #MALCADE

@GooseworxMusic I'mma be honest with how many VAs are shared between indie projects the creator of the Amazing Digital Circus is about to cripple the indie animation scene.

The Amazing Digital Circus creator confirms that after episode 9, they're just straight up killing the voice actors and animators. They're murdering them in real life for no reason.

@thomasbrushdev "You're too poor for that one sir" I felt that in my soul Thomas

For #WishlistWednesday I thought I'd share my favorite character from my game Twisted Tower. His name is Real Boy. He's a puppet. Btw... which video game merchant do you guys think is the MOST annoying? For me, it's definitely Wind Waker (Beatle). The truth is... I kinda like an annoying merchant. I don't know why. Why do I want to hate on the guy I'm giving my money to? Perhaps it's because he's taking my money... anyways. I decided to make a really annoying merchant in my game Twisted Tower. His name is Real Boy. What do you think? Is he too annoying? Or is he just right? #WishlistWednesday

Late comm

Yeah this is also a huuuuge one. You ***can*** get Godot on consoles, there's quite a few Godot games on Switch. But the process is rough, and requires you to have a personal branch of the engine because all of the console-specific features can't be in the open source version. This is less of an issue for AA-AAA devs because they usually have the ability to create and maintain a private branch, but for indies it almost requires you to go through a publisher to launch anywhere outside of PC.

@SplendidJams @henningsanden That and the fact that there is no clear support for consoles.

I don’t know anything about Godot but the phrase “has all the functionalities Unity has” makes my spider sense tingle. People in the know, how true is this?
