As per the developer, this was vibe coded in a "couple of weeks". This is an entire city builder/painter, and you have to make aesthetic walkable cities. Free to play in browser too.
Trailer:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ySPklZ4djks

Builder games are one of the hardest games to create due to all the tools, logic and mathematics involved.
How the FUCK are game devs supposed to compete?
>>
Every next fest there are already hundreds of shitty new city builders. This is probably the least impactful thing I have read all week and in the letters page there someone talking how their local park has the wrong kind of ducks.
>>
I will clap but i wont play
>>
Yeah, it definitely looks like it was cooked up in a week or two.
You should adjust your expectations and only buy good quality products.
Or rather, since you're likely the creator, you should get a real job and learn to code.
>>
>>750628218
>How the FUCK are game devs supposed to compete?
How is the dev of this one going to make money with this game? They vibe coded it with AI assets, which means the entire project is Public Domain.
>>
I sleep.

Wake me up if someone AIcloned pic.

>>750628218
Look very beutiful and very good saars ai is the future
>>
>>750628894
people are already begging him to put the game on Steam. It also has a paid version already, with more building styles.
>>750628821
>you're likely the creator
nope

Is anyone a game dev here? HOW the fuck do you cope?? He just screenshots his game and sends it to Claude and it just fixes bugs based on that image, or adds new features.

There's no citybuilding aspect like in SimCity. This is just placing house models along road splines.
>>
>>750630316
I know this, what's your point?
>>750630306
The UI maybe, but the game looks unique to me
>>750629267
It does look pretty. My point is that as someone who's been creating a builder game for 2 years now, i am hanging myself. There is no value in my work, my life, my ideas.
>>
>>750630539
In 2 more weeks he can add those aspects too. The bulk of the work is done, he can just add economy and failure criteria and it's done..
I am hanging myself. I've been sober for over a year now but I'm getting drunk.
Most players don't give a shit if a game has a "soul" or not.
>>
>>750630670
>The bulk of the work is done
kekaroo
the last 10% of the work takes 90% of the time
AI is great at starting these projects, not at finishing them
Progressing from Twitter prototype to viable game is extremely hard
>>
>>750628218
>Builder games are one of the hardest games to create due to all the tools, logic and mathematics involved.
And that's exactly the sort of thing AI is good at as long as you direct it properly.

>How the FUCK are game devs supposed to compete?
They are competing by making good use of AI, like the guy who made that game.
>>
>>750629269
How about you make the decision without caring too much about what other people think?
>>
>>750628218
>GUYS LOOK AT WHAT AI CAN DO! JUST IMAGINE THE GAMES WE CAN MAKE WITH THIS!
Okay. Then do it.
>*crickets*

why would i pay money for this though
>>
>>750629532
I can see some AI in the portraits but surely the character sprites weren't AI proompted?
>>
>>750632673
I'm pretty they just did

>>750629210
>people are already begging him to put the game on Steam.
lmao in your dreams pajeet. Nobody has to pay for it because AI is public domain.
>>
So it's just another of these fake "games" where you place building assets on a empty map? No thanks.
>>
>>750632734
You should prompt your sentences.
>>
>>750632734
I'm pretty sure that's not a game.
>>
It's funny how the AI bubble has already burst and no one notices or cares. We're literally living through a generational stock market crash that's nowhere near over yet. Just in time for midterms and GTA 6 and all this other bread & circus stuff.
>>
Looks like shit
>>
>>750632897
How has it burst? The criminals responsible are still peddling their poison, and we're still getting these rats pushing this garbage.
>>
>>750632776
What? No, it isn't. People have been selling stuff with AI for a while now. Music, games, drawings, you name it.
>>
>>750633035
Where?
>>
>>750633035
patreon/fanbox is filled with people selling AI porn
>>
>>750633146
Porn has always been the easiest way to part idiots from their money.
Any non-porn examples?

He probably could've made it faster without the cuck coding.

now you either make good games or get outdone by ai, repeat after me, AI CAN'T REPLACE YOU IF YOU'RE GOOD AT YOUR JOB

Is this the AI revolution?
>>
>>750633084
AI games on Steam, AI songs on Spotify, AI porn (images, videos, games) on Patreon, etc.
>>

looks like shit.
>>
>>750633229
AI is becoming mandatory to use due to the speed it lets you develop with. You need to be good at making games and then use AI to do it fast.

Art is the real remaining barrier that AI can't really do that well yet. For now it will be the "easiest" way to stand out in the sea of AI slop. Of course having a good style isn't exactly easy unless you're a top tier artist.
>>
>>750633363

There are already thousands of games on Steam that never get bought.

You don't buy songs on Spotify.

>n-no that doesn't count
Anon pls. Are you actually interested, or are do we just want to help you affirm your denial?

So, once again, a heretofore unanswered question posed to all the AI shills: if the technology is now good enough to vibecode my dream game in no time at all, why the fuck would I ever play YOUR slop? Let alone pay for it?
>>
and it looks like that too, theres 10 early access city builders launching every other week on steam
>>
>>750628218
>this was vibe coded in a "couple of weeks"
And it looks the part.

>Builder games are one of the hardest games to create
No, they have the most tutorials on them right after 2D dodge-roll slop. Hence, abundance of training data.

AI jeets are fucking insufferable.
Not news.
KYS.
>>
>>750633481
Just give me a non-porn example of a piece of media made by AI that people happily buy.
>>
>>750628218
>Vibe coded in a couple of weeks
There is literally a program like this that already exists, that is in its 'now we just add more cool shit' stage of development, actually looks good, and has as many functions as you can think of.
>>
>>750633519
I already provided you with examples. Steam games. Spotify songs (if you pay for Premium, you're more or less paying for the songs). Porn games, porn videos, porn images.
>>
look at the comments, 226 and 99% of them are from bot accounts ending with ! and 1 total like

this is an ad
>>
>>750633570
A specific example. A single example would be proof. If you can't provide one, you're obviously full of shit.
>>
> if the technology is now good enough to vibecode my dream game in no time at all, why the fuck would I ever play YOUR slop? Let alone pay for it?

good question. i wonder why they charge at all.
did a totk modding project on github, got nearly a million downloads now - never charged a dime, i did it for the love of the game.

same goes when i use AI to make music.

https://suno.com/s/d8uUf817HVCdRfyb
here is a recent remix i did of deltarune's rude buster, with some samples added from daft punk & pharrell williams

just ignore the faggots who insist on charging you money - ai is the tool to finally let you casually bring the things in your head to life.

next time you get a song stuck on your brain, take it here, see what it can do for you.
>>
>>750633619
I'm not gonna open either Spotify, or Steam right now because I'm at work. I'm pretty sure you can filter games by AI on Steam, so do that and then click the button again, and then click the games that disappear when you click the AI filter. Come on, you're a big boy, you can do it.
>>
>>750633975
>I'm pretty sure you can filter games by AI on Steam
you cannot
>>
>>750633975
Convenient excuse.

>I'm pretty sure you can filter games by AI on Steam
You can't yet. The closest thing is the AI usage disclosure thing that can be included in the game's description, but you can't filter the search by it.

Just for the hell of it, I went through the first 40 games that showed up under "Popular New Releases" and checked their AI usage disclosures.
I found 4 instances.
>2 using AI for localization/translation
>1 using AI for voice generation of a small number of lines
>1 actual AI heavy game with a hilariously long cope written into its disclosure and around 70% positive reviews

So if we're generous, I guess 5% of games that are "selling" are AI made.
>>
>>750629269
hating things is overrated and a waste of time
>>
>>750628218
What if I told you a few years ago a dev dropped his city builder on 4chan and it looked way better then this.
>>

I have an uncut penis tho (I'll not post it)
>>
The next biggest game will be an indie game thats fully vibe coded and it will sell millions of units
Anti AI fags will whine and moan and do nothing as usual and AAA games will continue to release lazy slop that also uses ai
This is the future
>>
>>750634948
Yes yes. And India will be the world's greatest superpower by 2030.
>>
>>750635025
Devs are showing no signs of innovation, so AI will do it for them
Don't get angry at the future, anon
Just prepare for it

>Assets clipping everywhere
>None of the sizes make sense
>None of the moving assets are pathing right or even straight
If this is the bar for your existing game then you were never gonna make it.

Precisely it's not the bar for my game.. I spend hours and days just tweaking some small feature to make it feel and play just right. This is why i made this thread. It feels like my detail oriented approach was a total waste of time. It can be slopped out in a few weeks. And mos players don't give af.
>>
>>750635621
>Most players don't give a fuck
Sounds like you are living in a fantasy land. The market is dogshit at the moment and people aren't buying most games. The only games that are selling well are made by passionate people or cheap as fuck. Even these AI slop games are being released free for exposure.
>>
>>750633035
You can freely sell shit that's public domain. Tons of PD stories get republished and sold all the time.

BUT - if anyone else starts selling the same stuff you have no recourse to stop them. It's public. Great for physical stuff like actual books - not so much for digital goods.
>>
>>750634446
I think a lot are using it for code and not disclosing it but the sort that only have AI code in there are still pretty rare. Though that share will quickly grow but maybe not amongst the games that sell. Time will tell.
>>
>>750628218
Yeah that's the amount of visual identity and quality I'd expect from an LLM.
>>
/v/ needs to accept that AI is not a bubble which will pop and then the world will magically go back to 2019
>>
do you actually buy this crap just to own the libs or whatever?
>>
>>750628218
their own showcase makes it look like a instant city 3d model generator, where's the game part?

>>750628218
It looks fucking garbage for a city builder.
