my experience (so far) using chat-gpt-powered bing for gamedev

I will preface this with it’s only been a couple of days but good lord, I have jumped in productivity by who knows how much.

“computer… make me a uhh…”

When the words “I use chat gpt for gamedev” leave my fingertips I feel like there’s a weird image in my head where people might think you tell the chatbot to write you up a whole game but even with the most specific prompt, there is still a ton of work to be done my friend. I just remember when I started learning digital art and people would kind of feel that way about it. Just click on the make game/make art button right?

I want to try outsourcing chunks of a game project to see how it goes.

I don’t really check social media too much and my algorithms make my feeds have the least amount of memes in my friend circle so when I check it and find videos where people are just living their life /cue video of that guy playing guitar hero using an 18 wheeler as a projector screen, it just full-stop makes me reconsider how I’m living life.

After seeing this I weirdly made the realization that most indie developers are pretty much like producers. And I wondered how far I could get with finishing a game if I thought about it as an investment of my time and real money to get a return at the end of it.

But honestly, At this point I’m trying anything to help me finish games my fellow reader. So let’s do this.

So it’s been a month-ish (with ubuntu)

So as mentioned in the last post, after who knows how many years I gave linux(Ubuntu) an honest try as a working adult.

And so far its not bad at all, there were obviously a couple of hiccups and some things that made stuff more and less better than my last home desktop environment, but as far as coming home from work and just wnting to work on side projects and maybe some freelance work. Nothing ever got in the way.
