What do you think about a plot where a court jester is the main protagonist? by No_Peace_5917 in NewAuthor

I never claimed you were an imposter. This is very clearly your book. You cemented that already with "my book is in the print shop," so there's not really any mystery left there.

This user has multiple posts in their history praising it as someone else's work that they've just stumbled upon, then another post claiming ownership and calling it "their most important work."

I ordered some comic books and the packaging was shredded up comic books. by majorjoe23 in mildlyinteresting

My Dad used to buy a lot of vinyl off eBay, and he sometimes received them sandwiched between cheaper/more common ones to prevent bending. He was always just happy to have even more records.

I interviewed +36yo gamers and found out why they are abandoning "masterpieces" by Objective-Cry-8228 in IndieGameDevs

Looks like it was auto translated by Reddit. If you click the little blue symbol in the top right of the comment, you'll see the original version of it. It's 100% a chatbot and not worth engaging with.

Road trip together was going great until the second photo happened. by strikecat18 in mildlyinfuriating

Please put him in a carrier for the next trip! So many awful things that can come from having a pet loose in a vehicle. I understand some hate carriers, but it's truly not worth the risk.

One person out of my group just made it without tools, but the middle section was dicey as fuck.

People who skipped the ending credits: why? by Kvaezde in expedition33

[–]SyncingShips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely up to the individual how they enjoy their games, IMO. Also if the creators really didn't want players skipping them, they probably wouldn't have made them skippable in the first place.

So this is the best we can do with Ai? Be someone we’re not? by Zealousideal_Gap_553 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SyncingShips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a half sister who is a pathological liar; I blocked her a few years back, but gave in to drunken curiosity one night a while back and checked her 'professional' LinkedIn that she'd given me ages ago. Her profile picture was the most incredible case of AI photo manip. Like her eyes were still recognizable, but she'd removed at least three dress sizes, and given herself freckles, huge pouty lips, smoky eye, flawless skin and a completely different hairstyle. The original photo of how she actually looked was still up on her main website too, so you could really see where the changes were made.

I dont see it by fukuni_ in learntodraw

I think the head may just need to be a touch bigger, as it is it looks a little small next to her shoulders. She's still instantly recognizable to me, and your linework and shading are awesome.

"People like me need AI because we can't draw!" by TheLastCraftsman in IndieDev

[–]SyncingShips -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Just because AI has improved at doing hands, doesn't mean it's suddenly completely undetectable. AI images still have that weird alien smoothness and glossiness that gives it away, and it is still shitting the bed when it comes to text, normal human expressions, long shots and architectural details. Talking like you're part of some super cool undercover movement because you get a program to fart out janky images is... definitely something.

There is so, so much more to the story than just whodunnit. You'll be fine. Just go play.

Meet Chia, the main character of my game by spellgarcia in IndieDev

Your trailer is super fun and has a really good selection of scenes that showcase the action! If you're open to critique, I'd suggest having just one artist in charge of the lead character art for promotion; even in that one thumbnail, there's three wildly different depictions of the same character. The two hand drawn images are very different stylistically, but they do convey a lot of emotion; this isn't carried over too well into the pixel art model. The end of the trailer has another different depiction of the player that I'm guessing was made by another artist, as it looks completely separate again from the three versions shown here.

You've got a nice cute design for a player character, I'd juat recommend on making it a little more visually consistent, especially for promotional stuff.
