also, like, this idea that your local machine decides how a game looks/feels using these nondeterministic AI models? sounds like it'd be an absolute hellscape for devs to navigate when these AI models malfunction.

I truly do not understand this weird obsession with photorealism in games at any cost.

well there's a good reason no one knew it was out sadly. We were suppose to have publisher who would market the game for us.....but....well things went poorly and so we were left on our own. I suck at marketing and never intended to be responsible for it. But im glad this person found it! 😅

Ukraine joins much of the rest of Europe in condemnation and calls the "shelling on 10 October by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) of the 🇺🇳 United Nations Interim Force positions in southern Lebanon (UNIFIL)" a "serious violation of international humanitarian law and UNSC resolution 1701 (2006).".

I wrote about the hurricanes, attention grifters, the limits of the term misinformation, and how it is more apt to call it a full cultural and political assault on any person or institution that operates in reality. (gift link)

What’s happening in America today is something darker than a misinformation crisis.

‘Honk!’ is an exhibit, yes, but also a space created to support multiple ways to engage, from play to observation, direct and at remove. It is also a Herculean work of games preservation, and a creative work in its own right. (you should go. It’s free, and will lift your spirit) 🔔 🪿 #migw#ACMI

Jini, Honk’s Curator, next to the exhibit statement:

House House's Untitled Goose Game (2019) is one of Australia's most successful indie videogames.
But the story of its success isn't one of savvy commercial product development - it begins and ends with friends making each other laugh.
Untitled Goose Game's concept spawned from a joke in a group chat between House House's Jake Strasser, Stuart Gillespie-Cook, Nico Disseldorp and Michael McMaster. Shaped by their creative backgrounds in film and fine art, they drew on a range of comedic influences from Postman Pat to Buster Keaton.
Playing as a naughty goose who honks, flaps and steals its way through a to-do list of minor mischief in a quaint village, the player stars in their own slapstick comedy, delighting in the chaos caused to the locals' peaceful lives.
For a few minutes or hours, Untitled Goose Game lets you break the rules of polite society, and the joy of going rogue continues to resonate. Fans play, draw, modify, meme and r
