I don’t like AI slop as much as the next guy, but that part doesn’t seem so bad? Sounds like something anyone could write.


Well that was a difficult read. Sure, it is a problem. But the author seemed so snobby about his music taste. Not very likeable.


What do you mean by churn in this context?


Noita is also procedural, but not static, although I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about.


Noita uses herringbone wang tiles where each wang tile pixel is 16x16 simulated in-game CA pixels, with tiles selected from a per-biome pool and the ability for biome-specific scripts to override certain areas too. As part of expanding each wang tile pixel into 16x16 pixels, some noise is applied to terrain to add the curvy look, with another layer of (thresholded perlin?) noise that controls which bits of inner terrain get variations (gold veins etc).

Source: working on a Noita-like so have spent a bit of time looking at prior art. Noita wiki.gg will explain a lot of it though (warning: many spoilers).


I don't have the option for this. In the UK. Anyone else?


Not mine, just thought it was funny


Would it be better to use something like streamers do with a camera that tracks the real you, but replaces it. Seems like it would handle all the natural movements without extras


Yeah their naming is bad. I've always knew it because of how long the types of poems are but most people don't know poems.


I know right? I'm into both things tech and hip hop, didn't expect them to collide


I am getting a wordpress error so used this: https://web.archive.org/web/20260114073704/https://blog.meta...
