One way I hold my self accountable on game quality: Every single game gets audited regularly for it's AAA score across 17 categories. This audit is public on my website for every game in development. My goal is 8/10 or better to launch anything.

Indie devs... Feeling lost in a sea of indie games? Your job is still the same: build a great game, then show people what makes it worth playing. AI or hand-crafted, your audience is out there. Give them a reason to care.

AI game devs: players don’t owe us their trust. They’ve had years of broken promises and broken launches. Their skepticism makes sense. Make a game so good they can’t ignore it. Earn the trust.

At an absolute loss for what I possibly could have done that even comes close to an automated trigger.. was working on 2 game dev projects. none have anything that is even in the realm of anything in the usage policy, and now im locked for 10 days?? @AnthropicAI

Shattered Rift, first round of visual work: the ship, planets, enemies and props now take real scene light, the HUD is down to 4 labels with a lead pip and damage arcs, and shake no longer moves your aim. missingpagestudios.com/games… #ShatteredRift #gamedev

Pip, the girl who draws Wick's map, has left a note at the door of every Wickmoor dungeon, read out in her own voice. At the great barrow: "I put a crown on the big barrow. If arrows come, duck." missingpagestudios.com/games… #TheEndOfMagic #gamedev

Deck Builder Football players, latest round: 8-frame side run, 6-frame front/back runs, runners taller than wide, and players 2.6 yards tall so the line isn't bunched. Same plays: today, round 1, round 4. missingpagestudios.com/games… #DeckBuilderFootball #IndieGame
