Your game's UI is too web/mobile feeling and it detracts from the quality of your work

I don't know if this is a controversial opinion or not, but I am seeing way too many games that have UI that does not fit well. It's way too web based in its visual and motion language.

I think web is great for building games, but I think it would be worth it for people to steer their UI towards more of an actual game feeling. Especially if you want to be taken seriously by gamers.

Tip: Produce ASCII specs then render

I found a lot of success getting the AI (I use ChatGPT) to create a spec with ASCII for any layout representation. Then ask it to render (imagegen 2)

Very good results in my experience!

Image gen too deterministic/cache heavy?

I've been noticing that image gen tends to converge to the same result (Not the exact same image, but very very similar) a lot of the time. Almost as if pathways have been cached for optimization.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I sent it a UI layout to do a pass over. Yes, lazy prompt lol

It finished rendering the improved version, then swapped the image for this?

Which looks like an ad. But it shows up in my image gallery

Did I just get someone else's output or something. The original image can still be found in my images gallery, but the chat only shows that ad looking image

I've been using steer quite a lot and found it to be so useful.

It really feels like peer programming but 10x faster.

Anyone else having a positive experience with steer?

React Frontend so I can do a bunch of fun stuff with CSS and layout fuckery

C# Game Core. I love the Yarn Spinner/Ink style of writing so I decided to use it in my engine. Was pretty easy to setup!

Definitely recommend if you don't feel like writing your own dialogue system
