Experimental 2.5D Adventure game prototype with graphics from #midjourney #aiart #gamedev It took me 2 hours to do the top down alley location from scratch complete with 3D mesh, navigation and current interactions & effects. Icons with , audio from Replica Studios

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios Never want to shoot down a developer just trying to create but, Using a tool that profits off the unpaid masses in any context is a bad look. I dont know if you just modeled from a 2d image and reprojected or what, doesn't matter. Us game developers should all be better than that

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios This project does not aim for profit, but it just an experiment for me to figure out what is possible with AI in a more of a ”real life” setting. Being a game artist myself I am very interested in how this affects our work.

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios So interesting to see! With talented, knowledgable people like yourself, it feels like we don't necessairily need to be scared of AI. With its help, we could create that dream of a life where we can produce more in less time and actually live our life to the fullest.

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios I do not think the AI is scary. It might lead to my demise :D But I feel like it is a fun little thing that is very interesting to follow. Like a new pet.

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios This is fantastic and exactly the kind of thing I keep telling people they could do if they would just stop freaking out and try to understand the tools. x.x Gorgeous work.

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios Neat idea, setting gives me Gemini Rue vibes. Its exciting to think what new games people will make with AI tools that they didn't have the resources or money to make before, its gonna lead to a second indie explosion in gaming I bet, one even more creative than the first wave

@starsea099 @LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios Yes a 100%. So many otherwise unmade masterpieces will ve available. Niche games with high production values.

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios This is so fascinating 🤩 Reading through your process now. Thanks for being so open with sharing your prompts. Helps with learning what all is possible with MJ ✌🏻

@LeonardoAi_ @ReplicaStudios I figured this whole AI thing requires total transparency to not backfire.
