totally agree and he has a very reasonable position on it. "I'm grateful for fan translations but if it comes from me/is official I want to ensure it's fully accurate to my vision"

『リトルキティ・ビッグシティ~まいごの子猫の街さんぽ~』|SEGA 2026年6月18日(木)Nintendo Switchパッケージ版発売『リトルキティ・ビッグシティ~まいごの子猫の街さんぽ~』ネコになったら、ニャりたい放題!?

We are absolutely over the moon about this beautiful website @sega.jp made for the physical Switch edition of Little Kitty, Big City, releasing in Japan June 18th!

ありがとうニャ !

that's just anti-draw call propaganda 🙃

totally agree w/ the overall sentiment that gameplay system have been stagnant. "what if we took half the resources to render modern gfx and use that for gameplay systems instead" is a very interesting thought... same w/ bandwidth...

"...your CPU doesn't have to handle much more than where people are moving and whether a bullet will hit them before they arrive"

that's not really true -- rendering (draw calls, data transfer) uses a good % of CPU

I think this also bans many modern accessibility tools for those with disabilities since they use ML for text recognition, captions, etc.

Sure, I understand (and agree w/ that), but I don’t think it’s reasonable to equate the use of machine learning to LLMs. Autocomplete or parameter suggestion isn’t “vibe-coded” content. These features have existed since 2018.

(This would also include all Jetbrains IDEs and Xcode)

Errr, this clause seems to imply anyone using Visual Studio or VS Code would need explicit permission to use those tools since they have offline autocomplete that uses machine learning? It might be better to clarify the use of LLMs for code

This is pretty much how VC works, but they often have trusted services they will refer you to, or other connections. Founder networks are really beneficial and set teams up for success

I can intro y’all on discord or whatever works. Will DM info tomorrow if interested

It’s a solo dev looking to find someone to collab on art for his game. It’s paid, and the role would be also helping develop the style. Dev is experienced in programming (10+ years). I can get clarification on time commitment if needed!

QQ: is anyone in my network a 2D pixel artist looking for contract work? I have a good friend who is looking for someone to help them on a small project 🙂

If so, send me a msg and I’ll intro yall!

I don’t think people know how common this is

Incredible. Prev project of mine was offered 70/30 (in their favor, until recoup, then 60/40) and 60/40 (in their favor, forever). Both also owned all IP and sequel rights. I was told “that’s standard” by many people. Absolutely crazy for those pubs who did nothing more than throw money at you.

And you don’t even need a special card anymore, you can just tap your debt or credit card 😊

I understand why they’re asking that, but… maybe just update the review? If I can buy it now I want to know what it’s like at that point, not what it might be in the future.

The only thing they got right was the code name 😵‍💫

I don’t know how you can work at a company like this and have a clear conscious

It’s crazy he didn’t do anything and then wrote a 95 slide presentation about not working on the AI systems. Weird.

I wish people knew how insane the desktop stack is. It’s like 4 different runtimes of different versions and layers of layers of brokers. It’s a nightmare of components run by different teams

It’s kinda weird to even have that recommendation when PS5 and Xbox ship with 16GB.

there's nothing worse than a Helvetica Scenario

literally survivorship bias. how'd "Bioware magic" work out for them in the end?

I agree with the redaction of the award thought, especially because they lied about use during production

I think this is a bit of an overreaction. “No gen-ai use in code” disqualifies anyone using Visual Studio as that’s how local offline Intellicode in-line suggestions and completions work.
