Only one thing to mention: I think the language setting is broken somehow since it will always be English no matter which language is selected. Also the current language is not matching with the title page's language. But you know this is not the point for this game so just mentioning them lol
Great Job as always!



Is extremely fast!
It played surprisingly well on mobile! I'm gonna try again when I get to my PC. Bravo.

Of course, it was the AI that was wrong... that pink scribble was CLEARYLY meant to be a dragon.
Love this. Great job!

Here are the best and worst ones I got :)


The AI seems to struggle with outlines vs blocks of colors, so I started getting better results when I switched to doing that. It's kinda funny that even though you're being assisted so much by the AI, you slowly learn to give better inputs to it over time, not unlike a game!
But I have to give credit to everything else. This is by far the most interesting presentation for AI art I've seen. Much more than a simple prompt/upload system, you get to feel like you're really contributing to making it. The peaceful music and solid UI streamlines everything. I think the 10s limitations actually adds 2 things:
1. Replayability because it's too hard to send in your perfect painting
2. Because it's so chaotic, you actually end up with some unexpected and delightful outputs
Incredibly fun one that I can send to non-gaming friends. I definitely plan to play this a lot more throughout the week.

Ok this is pretty fun and silly. I'll definitely come back and play this again.
Edit: Came back and played it again.
My only complaints which could be remedied in a future, post-jam version would be an option to have more than 10 seconds, and have some more prompts; as I've had quite a few repeats. Given the restrictions due to the jam, this is still really good.
The only thing I found a bit annoying with this game is that 10 seconds is not a lot to draw anything, and it takes a while to understand what drawing tools you have at your disposal, so I did'nt see instructions changing at first. Maybe making it glow or change in size at the end of the 10 seconds would help make them noticable.



Very nice little drawing game! Very polished version of something already fun on its own, this is great!
The way you receive prompts by small sentences and the time limit forces you to do some silly things.
Thanks for that I had fun!
Very cool.

I feel the best results when you fill the canvas:



Amazing, just amazing! :D To even come up with such a fun concept I really enjoyed playing it! The music also fits it so perfectly and everything feels really smooth and polished. Amazing work!


The IA work better with keyword than the drawing but the concept in very interesting !!! Good job and the presentation is really polish too.
here is my best "art"





Unfortunately my most favorite is the one I first painted. It was so perfect I thought it'd all be like that so I didn't save. Oops.
it's pretty fun, though scary, when it works correctly
My art!
We made our game completely with AI generated Assets from Stable diffusion. I wrote about the asset creation process in a blogpost here:
https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/51/world-warp/gernerating-assets-using-ai-for-our-ld-games
Would be cool to share experiences about Stable diffusion

I had sooo much fun this AI IS AMAZINGGGGGG GREAT WORK!!!!!
also very painfully shows the contrast vs human and machine learning capabilities
a very meaningful entry :heart:
impressive, interesting and executed very well
There were a couple of times where it seemed like the text prompt was too specific and so several elements of the drawing were lost. For example for "The Kraken Arrives" I drew a lot of boats and docks but the prompt didn't mention them so the AI turned them into tentacles lol. I think it might have been nice if the text prompt to the AI was more specific like "Kraken attacking boats in a shipyard".







The StableDiffusion AI "Diffuse the Rest" takes keywords and inputted images/drawn images and then generates an image based on the the global database scrape - which I understand... but where can you go beyond using the AI as a crutch? What else is there to keep people engaged with actual gameplay? I know I am leaving a tough comment but I am not sure what else there is to this entry aside from using the AI as it currently exists.
The artists are really beautiful.
But overall, I really enjoyed it; keep coming up with innovative ideas! :thumbsup:
Picrel is my best output, and also that one time it nope'd out

banana api seems to be non free, so do you pay for all these images or you're part of the banana team?
I cant say anythink just thank you for publishing this!
Some of the generated images didn't match what I drew at all, but I really enjoyed the storybook characteristics of this one:

Awesome work, and amazing innovation!


But I can be too abstract sometimes.


So yeah I paid for the server.. (it costs around $30 so far, much lower than I expected, the maximum cost could be around $600 monthly if fully occupied) As an experiment project, I learnt a lot during the development, so I think the cost is kinda ok tbh. ;P
Actually this is my first time to deploy a GPU backend, I write a short article about the whole process here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/51/10-second-magic-paintbrush/our-journey-about-adapting-ai-into-our-game-postmortem
@pbg the variety is true! Even the prompt is the same, we all get quite different results!
Thanks everyone for playing our game!
Sometimes, it would mix up the elements in my drawing and colors the wrong way around, but that was fun too:

I had fun drawing only with the provided stamps:

But mostly, I enjoyed making abstract colorful drawings and see what the AI does with that. It seems to follow the colors quite well!
