Two-person indie studio Chequered Ink launched a pack of 10,000 game assets to “give budding developers an alternative to AI”, which includes over 9,000 graphics for platformers, RPGs, puzzle games, board games, and more, as well as over 700 sound effects.
You’re paying for it. This pack costs money.
And even if it was free, the problem with AI isn’t that you’re not paying for it. It’s that you are ripping off artists without their consent. All artists that are in this asset pack consented to their work being used.
My comment got mixed results. It was a joke comment, but at least half the people took it seriously.
Oh, alright. Some of the other comments made me a little angry, that may have clouded my judgement on yours. So
All good. Lol. I shoulda gave it the ol “\s”
