Over the last few years, conversations about AI have become impossible to avoid.
Some people see it as the future. Others see it as a threat. Most discussions focus on what AI can do.
We find ourselves asking a different question:
What happens when people stop questioning systems simply because they are convenient?
As game developers, we're fascinated by the relationship between technology and trust. Not because technology is inherently good or bad, but because people tend to accept systems they don't fully understand as long as those systems appear to work.
That idea eventually became the foundation of a project we're currently working on: Future Sauce Dispenser.
Future Sauce Dispenser is a dystopian satire set in the year 2145. In this world, humanity has become dependent on automated systems to the point where people can no longer function without AI-approved sauce. What begins as an absurd joke quickly turns into a commentary on dependency, automation, convenience, and the gradual erosion of critical thinking.
One question we've already received is why some visuals, text, and trailer elements intentionally use AI-generated content.
The answer is simple:
Because imperfection is part of the message.
The world of Future Sauce Dispenser is built around systems that are trusted despite being flawed. Systems that produce strange results, occasional inconsistencies, and outcomes nobody fully understands anymore.
Not as a celebration of AI, and not as a replacement for creativity, but we thought that the storytelling and the setting of choice is not enough to punch through. We chose to show it with form... a 100% AI trailer, with all the glitches and bugs and imperfections it made.
Future Sauce Dispenser isn't a game about sauce.
It's a game about what happens when convenience becomes more important than understanding.
It's about trusting systems because they work "well enough."
It's about a future that feels ridiculous right up until it starts feeling familiar.
Some people describe the game as "Idiocracy turned into gameplay."
We don't entirely disagree.

And remember:
No sauce. No function.
