If you want to make games, nothing has changed. Keep on keeping on. If someone beats you to market, no they haven't, they released a rip off and the games industry has dealt with those for as long as there have been games.

If you pay attention, you'll notice the only games getting cloned by AI are lazy, boring gimmick games that only exist to go viral. Often times, these games are themselves created with AI. If YOUR game is creative, interesting, and complex.. You have nothing to worry about!
A game developer has canceled its public demo over fears people could use AI to copy the game before launch Alliance Arts will hold closed playtests instead, with rules banning participants from using AI to analyze or copy the game

How is your WHOLE game gonna get copied before it’s even out? The gimmick for the final boss? The cool animation on the enemy that’s only in the last world? I’d like to think indies know how to practice restraint with what they show off on socials before launch.

oh fuck this went bigger than I expected :O It’s great seeing other peoples’ takes on this and I will concede that I’m definitely speaking too definitively and from a privileged position

There are absolutely some simpler games that aren’t necessarily made with “less integrity,” I was speaking in terms of what I personally artistically value in games without taking enough time to consider that what I respect and what I actually enjoy playing aren’t always the same

This “vibe coders copying indie games before they launch” debacle is interesting to me. A dev with integrity should understand that the execution is what truly matters. Like, the only games this affects are the viral-bait games that start and end at their elevator pitch.

Gonna retweet this every time I see a Jeremy renner app joke. I think at this rate I might be proven wrong
jokes about the jeremy renner app are always funny because the infrequency of jeremy renner news creates the perfect timing between app jokes

I'm not sure if I'll ever come up with a funnier gimmick than this

The ways people have started to talk about indie game kickstarters in bad faith over the past few years on here really upsets me sometimes. I’d get into it but no one wants to read all that
i dunno putting game mechanic's behind a donation goal feels a little weird to me. i feel like if you dont have that already planned to be added to the game regardless of a donation goal it comes off as more of a money grab than a game with soul
