Nitter is an alternative front-end that allow you to view the tweet and the response while Twitter only only to view the attached tweet only. So in fact , it's better that he used nitter rather than the "original"
The problem of indie games is that indie devs with no prior knowledge of programming, no prior artistic talent, either in terms of crafting an enticing narrative and/or graphical design wake up one day, decide to drop of university/quit their job to create their big commercial "dream game".
The problem is that they often jump over the first step of learning how to make a game and go straight to publish their barely passable buggy mishmash of half baked ideas with no quality control or beta-testing done.
What they first should've done is make and publish a few small but fun games for free, learn from their mistakes and user inputs and use their new knowledge to make a bigger, better game. If enough people tell them that it's worth buying it then they can sell it .

When i was a kid I spent hours and hours playing Burrito Bison on Newgrounds so I know Juicy Beast know how to make games, really good and enjoyable games.
As for the article, it was an interesting read and I almost predicted every raison why the game was a failure but I don't agree with some:
1.The "strike a deal first" one is nonsensical. Get famous enough on one platform and the sales will be as good on the others.
2. Only one console at a time should've been obvious ( currently it's the Switch first, others later)
I also think that a significant part of the failure comes from the fact that the market was saturated with party games at the time as i remember seeing a lot of ads about similar games and then it just stopped. Also, these kind of games are not really that interesting and become repetitive very fast and no single-player / online multi-player killed it before it was even out.
I should've said first that this is comment was a rant about the general state of the indie game dev industry and not related to the article but i can't edit my comment for some reason
They dont need to be excellent but at least not dumpster worthy. Is that too much to ask ? for game stores to not being flooded with bug-ridden half baked asset flips or cringy VNs
I always thought "reddit is cesspool" was a meme. I made an account a month ago after lurking for months and good god its worst than i imagined. It was fun when browsing and commenting on small subs but write anything in the bigger one and you'll get swarmed.
Just don't steer from any of these narratives :
1.America is always good. They never did anything bad. They saved the world and they're heroes.
2. Apple is god.
2. China and Russia are very bad. American invasions were justified.
3. Chinese,product, companies are all bad. All they do is copy the almighty American companies.
Idk what subs you hang out in, but in most of the subs I follow one of the easiest ways to farm upvotes is to simply trash on the USA. I see one of those "Stop complaining about your life. There are literally people living in The USA." memes[0] at least once every couple weeks and it always performs well. "America bad" is a very well known trope in the Reddit comments.
> 1.America is always good. They never did anything bad. They saved the world and they're heroes.
What subs did you look at? My experience on Reddit is the exact opposite. There's even a subreddit where people whine about people whining about how awful America is: https://old.reddit.com/r/AmericaBad/
> 2. Apple is god.
What subs did you look at? Even /r/apple frequently hates Apple.
> 2. China and Russia are very bad.
I do see these sentiments a lot.
> American invasions were justified.
What subs did you look at? What invasions are we talking about?
> 3. Chinese,product, companies are all bad. All they do is copy the almighty American companies.
I see this one a lot. Especially on subreddits devoted to military hardware and any time someone mentions TikTok.
I think the truth is that people remember the things that evoke an emotional response. It sounds like you get upset when you hear people say bad things about China and when you hear people say good things about America. You forget, or just don't read, all of the comments that contradict those people.
1 and 3 : I don't look at the sub i just type the comment. When i see a comment about china or Russia being the root of all evil i sometimes remind them of the atrocity their country commited. The hypocrity of "invasion is bad unless it's me or my friends" make me sick to my stomach. The answer? "yes, but they are terrorists"....
When Russia started invading Ukraine and there was a global shortage of grain. I saw a lot of comments about starving 3rd world countries that dared to still be friends with Russia.
3. Apparently "Huawei was killed by US because it was too good and getting too big" is a completely delirious thinking.
On one instance i was downvoted to hell and made fun off for saying that any secret document worth declassifying isn't really a secret document. As an exemple, i cited the kidnapping of random civilians and sending them to prison to be raped and tortured to death by the US soldiers for fun and the videos about targeting civilians and kids with drones while laughing and making jokes about the kids growing to be terrorist anyway. Both of these only saw the light of day because of wikileaks and were a huge embarrassment to US that never wanted them to be known.
What irked me the most is i was told to grow up and touche some grass because apparently it's a teenager phases to care about these things (for some reason they talk to me as if i was an american )
As for your last statement, it's not that i get upset when good things is said about America. I may be extremely paranoid but am more like scared. As someone living in instable country with oil and therfore may be next on the US oil crusade. when i read anything america did and them prising their killing capabilities, i just look at my family and imagine that maybe one day i'll be excavating their dead bodies from under the rubbles of our home after a drone strike while the operator is drinking mountain dew and making a joke with his buddies about a having good day of work.
1.ask chatgpt to generate a prompt of what you want by giving it a few exemples from a random SD prompt sharing website.(this alone gave me stunning results)
2.(optional) Use Controlnet for the pose you want,from the posture of the body down to each finger individually.
2.5 use multi Controlnet for multiple characters.
3. correct any errors with img2img.
4. Enjoy
It takes 10 to 20 minutes (mostly in getting a good pose) but the results are always good and you can later reuse the pose again.
