I don't know why, but ever since I've hit my mid 30's I've been really into idle/incremental games.
Like this right here is SO PEAK!
(Game: Keep on Mining! - Worlds)
Today I'm announcing the themes for our upcoming open source AI art competition, The Arca Gidan Prize!
The meta-theme for this edition is Time.
Our goal is to push people toward the unconventional.
We've all seen many AI movie trailers, commercials and music videos - but what can you do with AI that's genuinely new and different? What was impossible before? How can you push open models beyond what people expect?
Without further ado, here are the sub-themes:
🔄 Déjà Vu
"This has happened before — or has it? That uncanny shimmer when moments echo: the glitch, the loop. When time spirals back through existence and ripples with recognition."
🌸 The Briefness of Bloom
"A moment when something is perfectly itself — just before it fades. The cherry blossom at peak. The golden hour before dusk. So luminous as it slips away, already a memory."
⏱️ Traveling Through Time
"Traveling through time — backward, forward, sideways. The time traveler, the archaeologist, the prophet. Journeys to moments that never were or haven't happened yet."
For full details on prizes and rules, check out:
- The Arca Gidan Discord: discord.gg/Yj7DRvckRu
- The website: arcagidan.com
As mentioned before, the current prize fund is $50k, paid for by the fees I received from the $dataclaw token. Any further fees I receive will be added to the prize fund - we'll keep adding $1k prizes for each full $1k we receive.
Finally, please enjoy this theme trailer by @hannahsubmarine:

@theshakesbeer@borgetsebastien@TheSandboxGame Don't underestimate the mobile market! Take fortnite as the prime example. Not to mention TSB games are low poly and easy on the hardware
It’s a shame to watch this app drown in propaganda, irrelevant ads, and unfiltered hatred for people of differing cultures and beliefs. It’s a lost cause at this point, the sky is bluer elsewhere.
@GoWest927 Too much anger propagated in media and clear "mob mentality" this election season. Really hope it doesn't devolve into another Jan 6th event.. or worse..
@halfd0rk Yeah…that’s Elon for pushing all this crap. Just saw a racist trump fan assault a black poll worker becuase he was being told he could wear political items in a polling place. His maga hat….
If you’re a new DM, here’s a tip:
Please shoot ranged weapons at your monk. Make the rogue do dexterity saves. Cast a spell at your wizard with counterspell.
Letting the players use the cool features on their character sheets is really fun!
