-Indie dev encounters issues at the end of their development cycle
-indie dev attempts to troubleshoot said issues
-indie dev consults the MANUFACTURER of their game engine, THEY can't solve their issues
-as a last-ditch effort to avoid shipping a game with a glitch they can't iron out, they spitball with an LLM
-surprisingly, LLM assists in workarounds that fix said issues
-despite not needing to disclose (per steam TOS), the dev is honest about their disclosure when nominated for awards to be transparent.
I would say House House did everything right. An LLM was used to solve problems humans could not. It didnt generate assets. It didnt infringe on the creative process.
I hate what AI, and particularly GenAI has done to the gaming industry, but this is a stupid fucking hill to die on. This isn't vibe coding. This isn't slop. This is what AI was SUPPOSED to do in industry.
Pick the right battles, people.
Big Walk used AI in 'the final stretch' of development, kicking off intense awards debate:

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
House House used LLMs sparingly near the end of Big Walk's development, mainly to fix bugs in third-party code. They estimate well under 0.1% of the game's code was affected, and they didn't use generative AI elsewhere.

I've been very outspoken against the use of AI but this is the equivalent of someone using AI as a spell checker at the end of a research paper.
This doesn't steal jobs, this doesn't steal art from non-consenting parties. This is how we want technology like this utilized.

Unpopular opinion time, but anybody that actually codes and works in a development industry, and actually read this article, would agree this doesn’t matter at all.
Please stop punishing developers for using code assist tools… Punish them for generating music and art.

The more I play the Ocarina of Time remake the more I love it. Some of you really love being miserable and honestly you deserve it.

Man who is everything wrong with the industry mad about having to disclose using the tool that steals from everyone. News at 11
There is a real economic cost to Valve’s foray into forced political disclosures. Besides taking 30%, they’re also taking a potentially even larger fraction of developers’ revenue and livelihood by undermining their business with these AI hate campaigns.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Steam requires disclosure of generative AI for player-consumed content via its standard Content Survey (alongside ratings), shown on store pages for transparency, not as political statements. Steam's base 30% revenue share matches major console platforms.
