If AI-generated art means the death of those absolutely fucking dreadful DAZ3D models every other developer insists on using, then I for one welcome our new AI overlords.

I hope it won't mean the death of 2D art games.

Just remember the standard game designs for the different styles.
DAZ stuff generally flows in a continuous manner, depicting the full picture character + environment in a connected series. It's basically like looking at frames of a movie.
Games using 2D art will use character sprites that are floating. You give it multiple expressions, and if possible, different poses. The background is a separate pic to portray the atmosphere of their location. When it comes to sex scenes, or other pivotal scenes that you want to focus on, you use the 2D CG art.
I'm probably just explaining basic concepts that everyone knows about, but what I really wanted to get at was this. If you switch to fully 2D art, much more of the game will depend on the quality and quantity of the writing. If DAZ is akin to an interactive movie, 2D games are interactive novels. For one, the sex scenes need to be pretty long and wordy, being carried by the kinky dialogues. You would also include more descriptive text.
For what it's worth though, I thought the "pixelated" retro style 3D stuff looked pretty interesting in its own right. But I'm with everyone else that it clashes rather strongly with the AI generated art.
I haven't tried any of the AI image generators yet, but this seems like it would be easily fixed by having a local library for the AI to refer to.
You let it make a few images of the same character then feed these images back to it, defining a character name and saying, every time I write "character", this is what that character should look like.
Same for outfits and backgrounds, so eventually you should be able to write "character" wearing "outfit" in "location" and get consistent results.
Yes, exactly, there is active research work where you take a pre-trained model (such as the stable-diffusion one) and then "seed" the parameters of the art style / characters you want as a second step. And then generate your requested images using txt2img or img2img techniques.
So far I haven't found any of these types of ai-models that are easy to get your hands on, but I expect it will come along soon enough.

Looks very interesting! What about future content? Any pregnancy or impregnation content planned?
Nice, I believe that's the first with AI. Was curious to see how long it would take.
Will be interesting if the amount of games released will jump to many more as it's much easier now.

The “p” key opens the gallery. I need to add a settings menu for keybindings, or some other way to let players know about this stuff though.
I plan to keep expanding this game with new content for a long while, and I’m taking requests for new content ideas.
I’m definitely open to pregnancy content. Can you give me examples of the kind of pregnancy content that you want to see?
i think this is the first AI art game, so it'll be interesting to see how to robots handle sex scenes, or even scenes with people interacting, because from what i've seen elsewhere they don't do it too well
Yeah, that’s a pretty good summary. It really does struggle with multiple characters. Any time I need an image with multiple characters, I’m probably going to have to spend a lot of time in photoshop re-working the image, doing paint-over, and running parts of the image back through the AI.
I have a few images like that in the game (currently a few images of handjobs, some vaginal sex, and one face sitting image) and they are generally pretty difficult.
The face sitting image required me to do a low quality painting of the scene, then run it through the AI a bunch of times, a ton of Photoshop to get it looking right, etc. It was one of the hardest images I’ve done for the game so far. I think it took about two hours, but it’s also one of my favorites.
That image is currently in a patrons-only dream fragment. I’ll probably add it to the free version eventually. Either that or you can wait until some mad lad posts a pirated copy of my game here, lol.
Which I’m basically okay with, by the way. Piracy happens. Honestly, it’s probably good advertising for my game if it gets pirated right now. I’m not exactly telling you to steal my game, but I’m not going to get mad about it either.
