-Indie dev encounters issues at the end of their development cycle
-indie dev attempts to troubleshoot said issues
-indie dev consults the MANUFACTURER of their game engine, THEY can't solve their issues
-as a last-ditch effort to avoid shipping a game with a glitch they can't iron out, they spitball with an LLM
-surprisingly, LLM assists in workarounds that fix said issues
-despite not needing to disclose (per steam TOS), the dev is honest about their disclosure when nominated for awards to be transparent.
I would say House House did everything right. An LLM was used to solve problems humans could not. It didnt generate assets. It didnt infringe on the creative process.
I hate what AI, and particularly GenAI has done to the gaming industry, but this is a stupid fucking hill to die on. This isn't vibe coding. This isn't slop. This is what AI was SUPPOSED to do in industry.
Pick the right battles, people.
Big Walk used AI in 'the final stretch' of development, kicking off intense awards debate:

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
House House used LLMs sparingly near the end of Big Walk's development, mainly to fix bugs in third-party code. They estimate well under 0.1% of the game's code was affected, and they didn't use generative AI elsewhere.

Yeah, it used an AI powered program they wrote, trained on libraries THEY made specifically for it to aid with a very tedious part of animating. It's not generative AI. When will people learn that the problem is generative AI and not AI-powered/assisted tools?
this is the funniest thing there is on twitter tbh, people with no software knowledge getting mad at ai written code is insane 😂
i fear my tweet has escaped tech twitter
what's up with ppl who have no idea how software works getting mad at ai written code...
I promise you 90% of all software you use has and will have ai code they just aren't telling you

The skyborn start isle feels nothing like classic its literally just retail lol, assets, artstyle, power level you feel like you are a champion at lvl 10, a lot of talking a lot of loredump that you shouldnt really have at lvl 10 its pretty bad imo needs a lot of work

Ummm.
You cannot blame variance for your lack of performance. @riopaser closed past season with a 2nd place and started this one with 1st place undefeated and on the same weekend @mihono_suica won his 5th (6th?) Global Challenge. Accept variance but also accept you need to improve 🙏

forgive me father, for i have sinned.
i used incineroar and rillaboom to go undefeated on ladder tonight. the fake out pressure was too appealing. i tried to resist, but i was weak. fake out parting shot, fake out u-turn. grassy glide parting shot.
i now pray for a broken water-type starter with fake out to complete the trio.
i understand that this desire is itself a sin.
