Accusation Against Our Game & Our Response
Hi everyone. I'm Pinkoko and I have to talk about something a bit unpleasant. This week, we learned that on a social media platform, someone was accusing the artwork for How To Break Up With Your Yandere Boyfriend of being AI-generated.
Unfortunately, accusations of AI-generated art are becoming a common way to attack indie artists and developers. Since the claims were weak and the person making them was hostile toward anyone who disagreed, we didn't take the accusation seriously as a team.
However, when our artist Darklime, who creates all of HTBUWYYBF's sprites and CGs, learned about the accusation, they were understandably very upset.
They personally suggested recording the creation process of a new CG and sharing it publicly. They even wanted the video to be recorded in a stream-like format outside of the drawing application so that anyone interested could clearly see the brushes, tools, and workflow being used. They dealt with serious storage limitations and took on extra work just to defend both their art and the game.
I honestly don't know how to thank them enough for that 😭 Without them, our team wouldn't have come this far 😭
For recording, we tried to choose a CG that wouldn't contain major spoilers and wasn't +18. We hope you'll enjoy it.
And if you're an amateur artist like Darklime, they have a little note for you: you don't need to be perfect for people to appreciate and enjoy what you create. Just keep making the things you love 💕
As an amateur team, that's exactly what we're going to keep doing. We may slow down from time to time, but we won't stop. We've only made it this far because of your love and support, and we want you to know how grateful we are to all of you.
Thank you, as always, for your kindness, patience, and support💕
