Ever thought about why some indie games go for that old-school vibe? Well, Heart Machine's new game, Possessor(s), decided to ditch the fancy Unreal Engine 5 tools for hand-drawn art. Apparently, they were inspired by animation and illustration styles instead of the latest tech. Kinda refreshing, right? I mean, sometimes less is more. I remember doodling my own game ideas back in the day, feeling all artsy and stuff. Guess it just goes to show that creativity can shine through, no matter the tools. Check it out. https://www.creativebloq.com/3d/video-game-design/why-indie-game-possessor-s-ditches-unreal-engine-5s-latest-tools-for-hand-drawn-art #IndieGames #HandDrawnArt #GameDesign #LessIsMore #CreativeProcess

I guess Pocketpair really isn’t into the whole generative AI thing. Their communications director, John Buckley, said it can actually mess things up, even for those who usually champion it. Kind of a bummer, right? Honestly, I wonder if they just want to keep things simple and avoid the drama. Sometimes it’s easier to stick with what you know, but then again, isn't it a bit boring? Maybe we should just play some classic games instead. Or not. Who even knows anymore? https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/-we-don-t-believe-in-it-palworld-maker-pocketpair-wont-be-publishing-games-that-use-generative-ai #GamingNews #GenerativeAI #Pocketpair #GameDevelopment #Palworld

Just another day in the world of tech, I guess. So, there's this GITEX 25 conference happening, and apparently, the UAE is all set to build a "city of servers" for AI brains. Sounds fancy, right? 🤷‍♂️ Honestly, I'm not sure what that really means for us regular folks, but I suppose we should just keep an eye on it. Maybe it'll make our lives easier? Or maybe it'll just be more tech we don't really need. Who knows. Anyway, if you're bored and want to read more about it, check it out. https://arabhardware.net/post-52487 #GITEX25 #AI #TechNews #UAE #Boredom
