Does Steam have rules against labeling things as genai free in trailers?
if not, then at this point if you're an indie dev, and you're not making a point of your game being 100% human made, you're already handicapping yourself in earning my purchase.

I swear to god.
Just put whether you’re using AI or not into your trailers.
I’m tired of the first question I have on seeing a trailer being”You using slop?”

it's currently very small but getting attention thanks to popular indie streamers, it's vocally anti-AI and pro-LGBTQ+, its TOS and privacy policy are so nicely stripped down and devoid of confusing legalese, and it looks like the main dev likes to say hi to a lot of the streamers, how nice!

This is what my today's hangover sounds like.
Probably a Trap (a sketch for a gig intro)
We might have our first gig with some new members soon, so I made a sketch for an intro. Yet another tune inspired by indie dev StellarMantis.

Hong Kong RPG The Book of Prosperity Debuts at Osaka Indie Games Summit 2026
SingKeys built The Book of Prosperity alone for 7 years around a day job, so the demo's BATTLE ONLY time attack is the only mode that works without the story context a solo dev cannot demo in 15 minutes.

Indie developers Nerial are closing (tinyurl.com/3nr2yvjn). You may know them as the developers of Reigns. I remember writing about an earlier game, Devouring Stars, on my long-defunct website Arcadian Rhythms (tinyurl.com/49udc4fp). RIP Nerial. I'm glad François Alliot will continue making games.
Reigns Dev Is Closing Down As Leads Go Independent Again

Solo dev on a mystery thriller escape room, four days from launch. His own summary: making an entire indie game was somehow manageable, getting people to click the wishlist button is apparently impossible. Your house is the room.
