Big Walk's AI-Assisted Bug Fix Sparks Backlash Among Indie Game Festival Judges

The developers of the indie game Big Walk used AI to fix a bug, and the choice has drawn criticism from the indie game community. According to the report, many judges at the Indie Game Festival consider any use of AI coding unacceptable, regardless of how much was involved.

Why it matters: Festival and community norms on AI-assisted coding are tightening, which could affect how developers disclose and justify AI use in their work.
