Itch.io deleted “a couple terabytes of ai slop” games.

The indie game hosting platform didn’t specifiy what was purged, but it has clear creator guidelines around acceptable AI usage. The cleanup comes after itch.io reported that daily game submissions have doubled in two months. Meanwhile, almost half of all games released on Steam in October disclosed AI-generated content.

Affinity announced on X that a Linux version is “in active development,” but didn’t share a launch date. After being acquired by Canva, Affinity for Windows and macOS was relaunched last year as a free all-in-one app for vector graphics, photo editing, illustration, and page layouts, with an iPad version introduced this week.

The real AO3 platform is still suffering a partial system outage after announcing some lengthy downtime last Thursday.

Today’s Vergecast: Cloud gaming works — but it’s not winning.

Streaming all your video games seems like such a good, simple idea. All your games, everywhere, on any screen you like — it’s the dream! The Verge’s Sean Hollister explains how the tech works now (which might be better than you think), why it’ll take a huge amount of work to make it even a little bit better, and why games like Grand Theft Auto VI probably can’t just live in the cloud.

Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto on AI and games.

As reported by Nikkei Asia: > As AI becomes able to do more work, that will create opportunities for everyone to think seriously about what creation really means. Copy-pasted designs have existed before, but they don’t last. When an individual designs something, they create with intention. All a computer does is help with that work. I think that no matter how much it evolves, there will still be things we can do.
