Was about to suggest this be shared here to attract more people. Was actually eyeing this to submit an animated SV enemy battler, but am not sure if those are eligible since it would require a plugin to use.

Battler/Enemies honestly works and you can just provide a single frame version of them on top of the animated ones :)

I might be interested in this just because making assets is a lot faster than making a game

I forsee a lot of people submitting AI assets and swearing they totally made it themselves. It's a common occurence on every art site and asset marketplace.

This contest seems so fun!! I really want to make some magical girl stuff, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in time (;´w`)ゞ good luck to everyone who can participate!

This is basically submitting somebody else's work, so no. Completely inappropriate for an art contest IMHO.
Yeah, I figured there are at least two camps in this question. The rules are absolutely clear in this asset contest, hence the suggestion.

I agree, there is a need for clear regulation or good detection.

I don't think chat gpt or canva are interested in the price. You wouldn't get it since you didn't make nothing xD
I guess you could always train an AI to get rewards for winning prizes :)

There’s no “two camps”. Everyone that values art will agree that there is no place for AI generation in art contests. It doesn’t make one bit of sense, really.

I suspect you’re just here to troll, but it’s not funny so please go back to the dedicated AI threads to vent your passion for AI. Don’t do it here.

All of the skill/system icons: Done
Pepper hopped up on my bed to snuggle earlier... and now there's grains of kitty litter all over the foot of my bed. Now she's in her own bed fast asleep. Sometimes, I like to wonder what Pepper dreams about... does she dream of chasing her toys? Pouncing on the lizards she sees on her patio? Purring in a sunny window? Receiving pets and scritchies?
Oh no... she's back in my bed.
Really interesting seeing the public be so okay with the placeholder art in Slay the Spire 2. I guess they trust in the potential of the final product, but it would be cool if the general consumer had a better understanding of dev pipelines.
Haven't updated my status in awhile. I'm taking a short break from working on my game because I have a sliiiight burnout,,
