My friend and I recently started our own game studio and we've been building some AI tools to cover our gaps and let us work quickly since it's just the two of us, and it's been extremely helpful so far. Over the years, the indie dev community has been incredibly supportive of my hobby projects and I'm finally in a position where I can give a little back by sharing our studio tools for those who couldn't otherwise afford them. We're also trying to build a little server of indie devs (and gamers) where everyone can share game prototypes/progress and get some quick feedback, since a lot of our early studio work is prototyping weird implementations of AI in games and finding out what's fun -- and what's not.

Right now, we have free image generation (with Stable Diffusion 2.1, but soon to be Stable Diffusion XL) and a Unity-based LLM that's similar to Unity's new Muse chat (answers questions about how to do things in Unity, generates code, has opinions on best practices, etc), but we're also building out some more libraries for more deeply integrating LLMs and image generation into Unity that we'll share soon. We're also open to exploring other AI workflows if anyone has any ideas -- we're still in a very exploratory stage, but I'm hoping to start us off on a very open, supportive foot.

In other words, thanks for all your feedback and help over the years. I know AI isn't for everyone, but if it's for you we'd love to help you create awesome games with it where we can. The server invite is here: https://discord.gg/hAz8JQVreG -- I'm @drusepth and always around (and sometimes just stream Unity dev all day). :)
