same! I've been trying so hard to get my ARPG to work using midjourney but I am struggling with characters

is there any news about ur game?

😎

Cool , we looking forward for that.

and this is the best thing, because you can put more effort for inventiveness than developing knowledges

RIP game art and game artists.

​@@TheFormActually Not at all. The output is impressive and AI is here to stay. But still, a bunch of pretty but disconnected elements. Character animation is poor. Think of AI as a very powerful tool.

@@Verttigo1982 soon the IA will able to generate good animations too, search about the animation generator of nvidia

You are most welcome!

Kind of you!

You are welcome ^^

Good idea 👍

You are most welcome, glad to hear it was useful.

Kind of you!

Midjourney takes 30sec to 1min to generate 4 examples and about 10 sec to upscale the one you choose

We used a shader to animate most of the sprites in the scene, you can check the tutorial link for that shader in the description.

Exactly 💯

when you look at all these indie games which came out the recent years this is a step above the majority of em. i dont see why you cant use this option for a finished product.

@@ap_po because then "artists" will have to look for jobs

@@scarm_rune what is that "" supposed to mean? It is hard, dealing with reality that it alredy stole those jobs. That is why artists are in denial. Artists usually define themselves through their art. It is life style, life goal, expression, many years of hard exercises. Thus, the meaning of life for many. And now it means nothing.

@@janci00019 Candlemakers when lightbulbs got invented felt the same way. Artists that see money as the only reason they draw shouldn't be artists, which is who see lashing out. Get that idealistic vision of "artist" out of your head. Same with journalists "always seeking the truth and adhering to their integrity", or politicians always having their voters in mind, or police always protecting us. They SAY that, doesn't mean its true or even common. I see artists on Twitter mock "sandwich-artists" and now they are getting the same philosophy of "what is REAL art?" thrown back at them. Get a real job, if art is your TRUE PASSION you will do it anyway, in your free time, for art's sake. If not, your passion might just be playing games, or watching movies, and nothing is wrong with that. I wash dishes, it's not my ~*~passion~*~ its my job. If I could get paid for something I was doing anyway, that would be a tempting scam.

We have another tutorial about that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l7GqiNapsbCYg4k.html

What about doing a levels adjustment? Desaturate the image and then do that levels adjustment so the white in the background is all white.

color to alpha where is this option? has to be written in midjourney or photoshop?

yes everything is possible

@@BinaryLunar huh? it's real? I tried it but I didnt get the result. Could you make a video about this please?

Until an art director AI exists (trained specifically for making games) or the technology gets more powerful and decides how to make things aesthetically pleasing for a great gaming experience based on other games. Kind of like how they are trying to implement AI into some of these game engines already… probably in less than a year or two you will be able to prompt full games , text to game. Like a professional level game…

​@@phen-themoogle7651I think at that point,most jobs that aren't manual labor will be eradicated.

No , this is perfect and far more better than all the shit you ever did in your pseudo professionnal life.

All of that is just basic shit in photoshop you can learn in a 2 minute video tutorial. When you rehash what redditors are saying it doesn't make you seem very intelligent.

Yes the tutorial in the description

Kind of you!

Kind of you!

I will consider that

we have a tutorial about how to do that. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pa10bM11s63ZY5s.html

Cool, we waiting to see that :D

You can start from the initial image that is drawn by you or your artist

What part of AI is imaginative? That's like saying Steve Jobs is imaginative for telling his employees to make a phone and taking credit for it.

@@joukeseinstra1127 This argument bothers me because humans essentially do the same thing when they're being "creative". It's all a mix of past inputs.

​@@ProxCyde There is a difference between chaos and creativity. Hoping for innovation by randomness appears dystopian from my view. Though, to be honest, I think we both knowcan agree that people cannot resist the temptation of a potential holy grail. Let's hope for the best.

@@joukeseinstra1127 Yeah. But that's where the models come in I suppose. To remove some of that chaos. Here's to hoping anyway, yeah!

it s can be as good as humans doing, since it just does what you want. here it s rayman style, so any artist good ad D2 and rayman style could do the same, you also can regenerate and add any details on an already generated img to add more details, sometimes easier to get a base and move forward step by step

2 days

It’s not a game just a scene with 2D sprites and a moving character

@@skyz3ra that is the definition of game 😃

@@BinaryLunar ok good luck with that :)

@@skyz3ra You described every 2D platformer lol.

Now gameplay first. I`m tired from empty stylish games.

Good idea

You are welcome 😊

True, by the date of recording the video, this feature wasn't available in Midjourney 4

@@BinaryLunar yeah ik :) just letting people know who now see this vid.

Next video about that ;)

Midjourney provides better visual results

Yes, it has subscriptions.

That is Stable Diffusion Web UI

@@BinaryLunar thanks! As far I see Stable diffusion alone is worse than Midjourney, but your approach makes a good use

There is old video on our channel about that.

Hey, i've got the same issue as you, i rescale my image and its get blurry and pixelated in unity... Do you know how to fix that?

Not yet 😢

Sure might do that or create new channel only for ai topics

Yes Midjoury is still the best AI generator in the market.

thought the same. We will see a renaissance of more trashy "mafia" and "fantasy" bullshit games. It won't ever create a cohesive game to art game as this has to fit together and is more complex than simple prompts. I could see this as a tool to help with creating a feeling. Like a sandbox mode in the beginning of development.

As it is, people already make lots of crappy games. The best games are created by artist that love games...A corporation like EA wont keep that in mind. We got bought off by EA when they were trying to expand their portfolio and they failed.

very scary? Less work, more effective, lower barrier to entry = scary. Maybe scary for the tiny percent of dinosaur gameplay artists that refuse to adapt. As for the other 8,000,000,000 people on earth its great.

@@thomashaury6651 Not to mention the fact that there are so many free game art assets out there that you could create thousands of free games already without ever paying for an AI subscription.

​@Thomas Haury I already can't consume all the games out there. This is going to cause more games, but so little money per game it won't be worth creating them anymore.

That's why we still need artists for composition, layout, lighting, detailing, colouring and refining.

@@512Squared Good games about gameplay. Vampire Survivors is a great example.

You just need better Prompt then you can see magic

Problem is that AI can create any style and it's getting incredibly difficult to differentiate between AI and human-made, at least without proper inspection. Even for an artist like me. There's no single particular style to be associated with this.

Oh yeah, there's going to be a lot of AI shovelware. You'll be able to spot it because every sprite and background will be really detailed and artistic but the parts won't fit together coherently. However, I think we're going to see some brilliant indie games from solo creators using AI art assets.

It literally looks better than the work real artists do. You're smoking lol.

True, I should have used test

Researching creating a consistent character with StableDiffusion and started reaching good results.

True, I did that in few mins just to test things , not for creating pro animation 😅

@@BinaryLunar Thanks for the upload. I tried that site too, for pixel art.. it doesn't do too good w/ that.

True, it was quick experiment

Scary advancements in a short time

Could you link and example of how musicians are doomed?

Photography editing. You'll take pictures with your phone and run them through AI to make them incredible.

The marketing: "Eventually AI will take over all the unpleasant jobs and we'll all be free to be authors and musicians"! The product: AI has replaced all authors and musicians and you work at Taco Bell to try to make enough money to buy the latest AI video game.

AI already know how to program, so programmers bye bye, and 3D artist also, new nvidia AI can model 3d objects of prompt text. But you need to know, that AI is generating Art inspired by real artist, so it can copy styles, but is not able to create a whole new style.

Youre still skilless sorry bub

​@@Yagizino clearly you've never tried to make a game - it takes considerable skill well beyond the artistic requirements.

@@512Squared Then hire a fucking artist lol

​@@Yagizino Okay. I love you to the moon and back. ❤️

@@mayank4156 Love is not the answer.

Yes!!

The prompts already in the video.

@SquaredCircle wrong. it meshes art together

@SquaredCircle sure. Keep on stealing and scraping from others

@SquaredCircle sure you do

Yes, completely cutting out the need for any human input at all into game creation, the AI will even be able to play the game itself, a computer game created by computes, for computers! Awesome.

@@thomasgriffin9267 haha! This is funny.

I may have agreed with you before Dada and the modern/contemporary art trends. One of the most famous works of art of the past 150 years or so is a urinal that someone turned on its side, with nothing else done to it. There are also a fair few artists I know whose art consists of literally throwing paint at a canvas. Art serves the purpose of the artist. Sometimes that's making a social or political point. Sometimes it serves as an emotional outlet. Sometimes it's getting an idea out of your head and into the world. Sometimes it's just there to help flesh out your game environment. For game art, AI is fine for creating assets - at least the ones that aren't at the forefront of the game or are just going to be used as placeholders anyway.

LMFAO!

lool he used chat GPT for that speech...tell the truth

Where is that mentioned ?

While he can't copyright the images,he can in fact profit from it,and the images being AI doesn't mean the copyright of the completed game would be void,just that the images created by ai wouldn't have copyright protection.

You don't know what you're talking about, byeongshin.

@@BinaryLunar It's actually mentioned in copyright law. It's in Section 306: "The U.S. Copyright Office will register an original work of authorship, provided that the work was created by a human being." Now that's the fuzzy bit, did you create it or did the AI?. And then Did the AI create it, or did someone else with a copyright on that piece of work? This is where the courts will eventually need to decide overall about the state AI is currently in. I also believe the world will have to agree on copyright law(as what I referenced is clearly a U.S. Copyright law and I'm unsure of other countries laws)

@@aratooki2593 You said it right there. "Studying". You didn't say it was stealing art from different artist and using their art in the generated art(the issue artist have about it.). To say studying and imitating a style is a human thing to do. You think all of anime look the same because it's done by 1 person? Or having a Disney style artwork is because only Disney draws that way? All the people copying Bob Ross paintings aren't human? Artist study other artist's style and imitate it if they want to. That's human. The fact the AI can "study" millions better doesn't mean anything. The issue with ai is that it is taking copyright work without permission and using those works in some capacity as "new" art. Not imitating. Now if someone who is apparently against ai art is saying studying and not blatantly copying /reusing copyrighted work, why should it be expected that someone who is for the AI art, or doesn't know much about it in the first place to say that it isn't studying these pieces of work that it is "copying" and imitating it? Besides that debating this online leads no where. Ai Creators are going to continue regardless of what I have to say about it. Only when it is decided in the courts of law will any kind of change take place to how the AI "study". I'm also against the whole AI art generator situation, until it can be shown to actually create things without copying something directly.

If the early automotive producer would have went into the garages of all people and stole their chariots to build cars, the analogy would fit. Otherwise not. Thing is, the AI works on original work of other creators. It is plainy copyright theft what is done there, the technical faszination aside. The "AI" only remixes, it is not creative.

@@SunSailor that’s a poor over simplification of machine learning. But by that sense, if an artist takes inspiration from another artists work….would that not also be copyright? It doesn’t take an image from someone else’s work and remix it. It takes what it understands understands and creates an image from that understanding. If I had ai create a picture of an apple, can you find the exact same picture of that apple? Any shift in technology over the course of history has always been met with push back from the people it effects. Instead of fearing it and looking to get rid of it, get creative and figure out how to incorporate it.

@@gasmoney6733 No, you are oversimplify the legal side of the problem. A lot of services use copyright art as input and thus the result is a copyright theft as well. Simple as that.

@@SunSailor Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww

There's never any direct copying of images happening. If it did, the current stage of which AI can create art would hardly be impressive. So there's no much grounds for suing/lawsuits. The only copyright or terms to take into account is what these software companies state. Which is "as long as you've paid our subscription, you can use it however you like". No one will get into legal troubles over this as it stands. However, what we should be talking about, is if these AI's should be allowed to train themselves by looking at art of artists who didn't consent to it. I use the word "looking" as the images never get stored, just practiced on and turned into math basically. It's complicated... But yeah, you can use whatever art this spits out as you please, no issue.

Stay mad. Sorry things got easier for people. It doesn't seem like you enjoy that.

I got the impression this meant you'll have no recourse if somebody rips off your game.

@@TheAlienpope That's not what he means. You're not violating copyright, but you also cannot claim copyright. So I'll just copy your game exactly and release a clone for 50% off. And you can't do anything because none of it copyrighted. Get it?

@@TheAlienpope Missing the point: The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has stated that AI-generated works aren't eligible for copyright.
