challenge: take a screenshot of a game on this list
not a genAI slop thing that nobody made
not a placeholder for a game someone might some day make
here's a screenshot showing zero games and three genAI breakout clones uploaded with no description by brand new accounts
@eviloatmeal they deleted one genAI slop account (allegedly) and added a checkbox that lets you search for the "No AI" tag directly and declared mission accomplished
https://itch.io/games/newest/tag-no-ai
if the newest feed looked like this without the filter that would probably be closer to okay
but that's still way too many clearly genAI slop thumbnails for a tag that supposedly doesn't have genAI slop in it
if you scroll down and see the same ten not-games twice in a row that means that in the time you were scrolling ten more not-games have been published on itch
hard mode is also making game jam games not count
if you do that you have basically zero chance of finding an actual game
here are some arbitrarily selected games from the "No AI" list
all of these were released in the past hour
meanwhile over in Spy Cards Online land where everything is made by a card game design pervert we have a new game mode called Electoral Carnage where you can play as Barack Obama
@ben Things are getting pretty bad on itch, eh?
