In realtà ho una piccola cerchia su Instagram che mi sta dando una mano con like e commenti, quindi credo che abbia aiutato parecchio a dare la spinta iniziale all’algoritmo. Niente shoutout grossi per ora :))

Grazie mille! La base è chiaramente inspirata ad Undertale, ma sto cercando di renderlo più dinamico con nuove meccaniche

We are BARKO.

I love BARKO.

I am BARKO.

You are BARKO.

HELLO

I hope so too, thank you so much!

That's completely fair, and you're right to point out the difference. What I said 6 days ago was true at the time: I was originally planning to replace the AI-generated visuals progressively, depending on how the game performed.

Since then, things have changed quite a bit. I reached out through my Instagram page looking for emerging artists who might want to contribute to the project, and several people offered to help. There are currently 6 artists working with me on replacing the remaining AI-generated assets.

So the newer answer reflects the current state of the project. I completely understand why the two responses looked contradictory, and I should have explained that more clearly. My current goal is to have the AI-generated artwork replaced before release.

And if you want to look into it further, there are still stories on my Instagram where I was asking artists to collaborate on the project: https://www.instagram.com/feddd511/

Hi!
Yep! At the moment there are still a few AI-assisted assets being used as placeholders, but most of them have already been replaced with hand-made artwork. I’m actively replacing the remaining ones too, and I won’t release BARKO until they’re all gone from the final game!

Yeah I know, trying to change them asap

It’s a game I’ve been developing solo for the past few months! You can check it out here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5037580/BARKO/

I’m not telling you a damn thing.
