hey.

if you read the headline and agree with it but don't want to read some mildly infuriating content, skip this post. remember that you're cool and valid, and enjoy the rest of your day.

if you are pro-AI, i also recommend you don't read this post. leave this page. in fact, kindly leave my website and never interact with me.

Thing is though, I can't decide whether the blubs that these "developers" keep writing are hilarious or pathetic.

We are a five-person team that has been working on this project for several years without the budget of a large studio. In our case, this was a practical solution that allowed us to complete the game at the level of quality we were aiming for.
