What a lot of people forget about LLMs is that they are tools. Most people see them as solutions, easy answers for complex questions, the perfect result without the effort. I am fairly anti-AI these days for a lot of reasons, but the main reason is abuse of the technology, both by the users and the companies that make them. You have a good mindset in that you're thinking of using AI as a tool, a way to streamline a process that you already know and understand, to make it take less time and give more consistent results. That's the point of AI. To give a simple example, if you have to send out thousands of emails, and each one needs different data points, you can use an AI tool to draft the email and pull the data points to the draft. You know how to write the email and add those points, and you'll still need to proofread the emails to ensure their accuracy, but not having to physically type out thousands of emails saves you incredible amounts of time. That does not mean you tell AI to draft and send thousands of emails and you have nothing but free time now, because the AI will mess up, and machines can not be held accountable. I will note that for the work you do, you will need local AI on your personal computer, as that is the only good way to avoid censorship. So yeah, limited use of AI to reduce resources for exceptionally time consuming tasks seems a good idea for a single developer trying to brute force development of an amazing game.

It took a couple days, but Captain managed to walk me through a solution. I'll add that this seems to be mostly my fault, linux computer, non-standard distro, other things like that, so just be aware that I made a goofy edge case and Captain helped me work it out. Y'all go check out the discord if you need troubleshooting.
On the one hand, I love that you give us updates. Getting a peek behind the curtain and seeing you talk about everything you do and the occasional glimpse into your thought process is fantastic. On the other hand, every time I see your update and it's not a release, my heart dies a little inside. I want the update!!!! I wants it I wants it I wants it!!!!! Alright, I've had my tantrum. Thank you for your hard work Captain, I can't wait to see the results of it.
Sorry for the necro post, but this felt more right than a new one. Don't know if you've seen Unraveling August, but I think it'd be up your alley. https://augustesoterica.itch.io/unraveling-august
Might take some digging.... but check out pretty much all of top 12 from 1980. Way before my time, but that's probably one of the best finals that has ever happened. Down Side Up was a lot of fun live, though I saw it early and dirty, I had aged out by then. Coats put out great sounds. My first Crown show was Industry, and that one sticks in the memory because of the massive sculpture they built on the field. My best Crown memory is beating the snot out of them my age out year :P
Let me finish up what you've put out so far! I only found this yesterday! Gotta say, more than a little confused with the spooky mind stuff MC is dealing with, but I can tell that I'm fairly early into it and I don't think he knows any more than I do. Still, story is engaging, wonderfully told, and while it's a slow burn, it's a very good burn, like incense on a spring afternoon. Need more Euphoniums though :P
