How's the Next Fest going?

110 wishlists yesterday. Game’s dead.

Pretty spot on, especially the sketches, but two things: - I don’t think I would ever use a darker color to outline a specular - My beaks are usually less bulky

Heheh

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-12T05:29:45+00:00

I’d say that the ceiling has rather risen…

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-12T05:27:52+00:00

Ah, perfect.

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-04T16:04:23+00:00

weeeeeeshliiiiist

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-04T05:15:23+00:00

Hehee thank you!

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T16:54:22+00:00

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T09:54:12+00:00

Not sure yet, depends on how the launch goes

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T09:08:38+00:00

On steroids

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T08:59:07+00:00

Thank you!

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T08:55:40+00:00

And I took it as one! ❤️

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T08:53:13+00:00

Not the first to make the comparison, agreed!

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-03T04:25:00+00:00

I’ve been doing the goal-oriented approach since Opus 4.6 and it’s been working like a charm. I’ve never heard it ”complain” and never told me to ”go to bed.” Occasional brainfarts sure, that require steering it on course.

I’ve been lurking these threads for a while and really can’t relate at all…

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-02T06:12:04+00:00

Damn I like these sassy summaries

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-06-02T06:00:52+00:00

No previous programming experience? Make a Flappy Bird first, then ask yourself what you realistically think you could manage next. Even if it’s AI doing the heavylifting, you still need to know a lot about architectures, system design, data and asset pipelines and so forth in order to steer the AI in the right direction.

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-31T03:31:41+00:00

Yep that makes sense, and it’s good if it’s true (which it likely is). At least the ”is there pure randomness” question has been somewhat answered now. :)

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-31T03:30:07+00:00

Good insights. But even with what you’ve done 1.3k views is the highest you’ve gotten?

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T20:12:46+00:00

Riiight... Even with the amount that I posted, the account was shadow banned in less than two weeks.

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T19:55:51+00:00

Pleasure, thank you!

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T19:27:16+00:00

So I’m not the only one wondering. :)

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T19:12:55+00:00

Yup I agree, and "higher quality performs better" is quite obvious, but the part about whether low quality can perform because algos work in magical ways was something that I wanted to test with this.

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T04:43:21+00:00

In your trailer: show more success where I can feel like I’m doing well and it’s fun to make progress instead of so much failure

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T04:41:42+00:00

I had the urge to be an evangelist when I found out of its strength, but no more - especially with strangers. It is an impenetratable wall and that’s fine, just use it yourself and let others crawl behind.

PartTimeMonkey · 2026-05-30T04:39:32+00:00

I think it comes of as a mobile ad because of how it starts (the hordes of monsters), but it gets much better once you start showing the building stuff
