I might make a future post about how much I struggled to get my game out there and the non-game dev stuff that slowed me down (like losing my job because our company decided to dismiss 50-60% of its work force).
My promise to the players: no vibe coding, no AI art, no AI scripts, no AI music, no AI voices.
My game is called The Milgram Experiment
Well about 6 months ago they started getting weird about AI and kind of making us use it more and more and as much as we can.
We also had to write down what task each of us do and how it can be improved by AI. Then a month or two ago they decided to dismiss around 50 or 60% of the company. The rest just have to pick up the slack and doing even more work with AI, but what I hear from my colleagues that are left, they have to work longer hours and it’s not easier for them. Sure AI makes some tasks easier, but you have to baby sit it so much.
I also heard a rumor that they might be preparing for a sale at the end of the year, so this might be a way to artificially pump the stock price and let the next sucker deal with it.
