Lookdev
Lookdev Summary Lookdev: a four-round art-style exploration that converged on a style the owner will actually build games in, then ported it to Anchor 3. Starting question: which visual styles can Claude author with minimal owner juicing/filtering? Five candidate styles (voxel, PS1, low-poly, toon, Blender…

My swap from Windows to Omarchy is going well and
My swap from Windows to Omarchy is going well and I think this will serve as my daily driver from now on. Compared to the start of the year, agents are much smarter and understand the system much better now so it's easier for them to get it to behave however you want. Below is a video of my taskbar,…

If the goal of Soul Society is creating beings
If the goal of Soul Society is creating beings who act righteously both when they hold power and when power is held over them, we can view the trial of thousands of lives as a selection mechanism for self-guiding righteousness. Only those whose action generation is completely unconditional, and thus…

I'm adding items to Horse Game and I was thinking
I'm adding items to Horse Game and I was thinking about how before I test if the game is actually fun beyond the initial fun the concept itself carries, I'll have added around 150 items, and they're all 100% finished, so it's quite a bit of work to gamble on a game that might not be fun. But ultimately…

It does seem Backrooms has higher memetic payload
It does seem Backrooms has higher memetic payload and will suffuse itself into the culture more successfully, more than I assumed back here, but it's still up in the air which of the two will last longer I think. It is interesting though how well Backrooms has held up memetically, for, in retrospect…

Projects like the tweet below and the recently successful Sir, We Have an Orc Problem look very fun to make. They're also very fun to watch (have not played the Orc game because I can simulate how fun it is in my head, perhaps a few more roguelite elements next time...), something about watching what…

Was working on the boy's voice from the "Go Forth, My Unstoppable Machine!!!" log and, as you can now see in the log itself, Claude was generating HTML artifacts to show me the various voices and possible variations. Eventually I said I was going to the gym and that I would continue iterating with him…

The realization the logs are more useful than I
The realization the logs are more useful than I intuited them to be gave me several ideas on how to improve them. The most important improvement is being able to see what I actually did in the game between each turn with the AI, so a full generic replay system. Playing the replays then is trivial as…

Continuing the continuation of the Steam AI score
Continuing the continuation of the Steam AI score idea, in a world where who makes the art becomes a scarce resource, proof of work becomes a valuable asset, as when games are cheap to make, who makes it becomes easy to fake, so a public record of making defends against it. Therefore, things like AI…

Continuing the Steam AI score idea
Continuing the Steam AI score idea, when such agents come into existence, Valve is uniquely positioned to automake games instead of just selling them. Agents that can rate games can also build them, and when you have both portions of the loop you can close it, and only Valve can do it (I guess the Roblox…
