It's taking attention away from real game developers, whose ideas, and content are stolen by these programs to generate new games. It's one thing when one or two elements are generated by AI, but when everything in the images, or videos shown promoting the game are generated by AI it shouldn't be here. We're a community that is all about playing games with real people, AI games make a mockery of that.

It's just sad that almost half the posts I see on here now are painfully obviously AI generated. From the menus, to the text, to the music, and all the images of characters, or backgrounds, absolutely everything.

It doesn't matter if the "developer" states that AI was used to make the game, or not, we're all here because we want to play games with humans, not computers. These posts are constantly sitting at 0-3 upvotes, so I think it's pretty obvious the community doesn't want them here. So, mods please make a rule banning them.

Hello~ made my first indie game, Giblings. It is inspired by some older games -- Liero and Worms, if anyone remembers those.

It currently supports 2-player local split-screen with controllers, but I'm planning to expand that to 4 players in the near future.

The game launches today, and there's a free demo available where you can try out the split-screen mode as well.

Thought I'd share it here in case anyone's interested. Feel free to give the game a wishlist if it looks interesting to you. :D

Giblings on Steam

Would appreciate some feedback as well, this is my first game and I want it to make sure it's fun.

Hey local multiplayer fans! If you miss classic single-screen arcade duelists where matches are won on positioning, quick reflexes, and reading your opponent, I’ve been working on something for you. Pew Pew Magic Wizard Fighter is a chaotic 1v1 isometric arena brawler built specifically for fast, best-of-5 duels: Local 1v1 & AI: Full controller support for local head-to-head battles or solo vs AI difficulty modes. Dynamic Battlegrounds: Stages feature destructible elements and changing geometry, so camping behind cover won't save you. Fast Match Pacing: Designed to be pick-up-and-play with immediate action and punchy arcade physics. We released our playable demo on Steam for anyone looking to try a quick brawler session. Check out the demo here and let me know how the 1v1 balance feels to you: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4760930/Pew_Pew_Magic_Wizard_Fighter/?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=indie_communities

Ahoy, Mateys! The demo for Aye Aye Captain is officially LIVE on Steam! Gather 1-4 players (Online & Local Co-Op), set sail, hunt for treasures, and try not to sink your ship!

My son and I made a Smash-style party fighter for our family's game nights, starring his real stuffed animals. It's built for playing together, and it's completely free: no ads, no in-app purchases, no subscriptions.

**How you can play together:**

- **Couch on the Apple TV:** up to 4 players on one screen with game controllers (Xbox, PlayStation, Switch Pro or MFi pads). A gamepad is needed on the TV.

- **Mix the TV and iPads:** someone on the couch with a controller and someone on an iPad or iPhone with touch controls can be in the same match, as long as you're on the same Wi-Fi. No extra controllers needed.

- **One iPad, several players:** plug in controllers and share the screen, or play with touch.

- **Fill empty seats with computer players** from Baby to Pro, so a little kid and a grown-up can play the same match and both have fun.

- **Team up in the story:** two players can play the story mode together, on the couch or across devices.

**The game:** 16 plush fighters, each with its own moves, special, super and shield (the dog hides in a crate, the budgie in a birdcage, the bee in a beehive). Rack up damage, then launch someone off the screen. A big smash is a "ONE SHOT!", which my son named and which the game shouts in his voice. The stages are rooms in our house: beds, kitchen counters, the porch and the bathtub.

For October it's the Halloween Edition: every toy wears a costume and there's a new Haunted Porch stage.

Out now on Apple TV, iPhone and iPad. A Steam version is coming soon.

We'd love to hear how it plays with your group, and what we should add next.
