Our company stands strong on this. Here's why we want to work with people who love to collaborate using the wondrous power of their imagination and critical thought.
We feel very strongly about this. In our view there is no place for GenAI in the art of making a game.
We will always choose a person over AI. Here's why.
We deeply care about human work and the amazing things humans are at the core of. We have no interest in engaging with works that forgo human creativity.
Great video here by @euphoriaap.bsky.social . We can all do so much better for this world.
We at Organic Matters also stand with people and are against the use of generative AI in our games! We make games by humans and for humans.
It was ✨research✨
I use heavy acrylic-style digital paintbrushes, so you can see the brushstrokes. Heavily inspired by Ireland's wild landscape and my own practice as a traditional artist. It's a learning curve (sometimes I want to lash paint onto the screen), but an exciting one too! ~ÚMK
Our first podcast shoutout for Organic Matters at the end of this podcast! Thank you so much to @simonparkin.bsky.social @myperfectconsole.bsky.social for this interview.
Keep an eye out for our narrative deckbuilder set in #Ireland... We're still early days but we're cooking!
This is why we're looking at UI artists. 👁️👄👁️
Hey! Support our #gamedev friends! This game is rad and worth it!
Thank youuuuu we've already made changes to this following feedback and it's not looking even better!
I've added easing to the animations this morning and it's a subtle change but already feels much nicer! Thanks for the feedback! - DC
Yes, but what about ANOTHER layer?
Just a month ago @sirbeans.bsky.social and I officially launched our indie Irish studio @organicmatters.bsky.social! And we're making something cool 🌱
Here's how we came to be youtu.be/A1bXyBitT64?... #gamedev #indiegames #ireland #irish
Here's a little something I've been working on. This is the intro to a foraging scene. I've been messing around with particle effects to bring some subtle movement to the scene. What do you think? (Work in progress btw!!) ~ DC
Thanks, Leeann!
Thanks, Erin!
Thank you, Drew!! 🌱
Hey folks! Not in a position to hire *yet*, but looking for folks to keep in mind who are particularly good at UI art/design! Must have previous XP in making UI for games (even jam games). So if that's you, please send me a link to your portfolio/work so we can keep it on file. NO AI. <3 🎨 ~ ÚMK
First time representing @organicmatters.bsky.social in the wild and delighted to do it today at #NexusGamesSummit - here's a wee glimpse of the day and yes my voice kept breaking because of all the chatting 😅
