Doing game dev as a hobby since Iibgdx was a thing. Chose to leave my non-gamedev corporate job of 15+ years for reasons.
Currently a Godot dev, though I have worked with Unity in the past (see posted game jam games), but their willingness sacrifice trust on the altar of short term profit has persuaded me to pursue alternatives.
I will NOT use Generative AI or coding assistants in my projects, as I take the craft and eventual game made seriously. A game that is the result of an AI model is not a game, it's a cynical product from an unthinking, unfeeling statistical model trained on stolen data.
