-Indie dev encounters issues at the end of their development cycle -indie dev attempts to troubleshoot said issues -indie dev consults the MANUFACTURER of their game engine, THEY can't solve their issues -as a last-ditch effort to avoid shipping a game with a glitch they can't iron out, they spitball with an LLM -surprisingly, LLM assists in workarounds that fix said issues -despite not needing to disclose (per steam TOS), the dev is honest about their disclosure when nominated for awards to be transparent. I would say House House did everything right. An LLM was used to solve problems humans could not. It didnt generate assets. It didnt infringe on the creative process. I hate what AI, and particularly GenAI has done to the gaming industry, but this is a stupid fucking hill to die on. This isn't vibe coding. This isn't slop. This is what AI was SUPPOSED to do in industry. Pick the right battles, people.
