So I know Novel AI was discussed before as a tool to use for vore themed text adventures and stories. However, they recently released a new feature for image generation.
Here is an example from their official twitter. https://twitter.com/novelaiofficial/status/1575371594561716225
Needless to say this has caught my eye!
You can find the AI here: https://novelai.net/
The AI still isn't great at recognizing vore or NSFW in general. You literally have to spell out what you want. So, while you may not be able to get glorious high resolution images with detailed stomachs, mouth, ect. You can still use this program to generate some art for vore themed games. I know other games on this site have used Kisekae and altered images to illustrate their games before, but with this AI you can generate a character for your game, take the result you like best and have the AI reference it. It will recreate that image again with whatever altered features you want! (Big belly, burp, breath, ect.)
As a proof of concept I made these!
The first image was a prompt I gave the AI to make a seductive character. Licking her lips, rubbing her stomach, ect. I then took the best result and had the AI reference it for the other images. I kept the prompt the same but added "big belly", "burp" ect. All the images where identical to the first one I made! I actually had so many good renders that I kept multiple versions~
I also made a furry variant!
Same as before, first image is of the character pred meeting you, saved, then the rest are images referenced off the first one with added features like "big belly"!
However, the AI isn't great with furry characters and often makes their chest and bellies more human and skin like.
The downsides:
The AI is still an AI. Even though it make great human renders, it still messes up. Tiny details like hands, mouths, tongue, ect. are still an issue. Even in the examples I shared, you can see them. However, they are an easy fix with even the simplest art programs. The AI can't do bulges like you see in most vore art, but you can use tools like liquify to add those bulges! The AI does most of the work!
It's not free. I have a paid, monthly subscription to use this. However, I have the basic membership which is $10 for a whole month. I was able to render over 200 images with the credits they give you each month. They give you 1000 credits each month and its 5 to render 1 image. (less if you give it a reference). I've used almost all of my credits and its only $4 to get 2000 more! Double what I started with! So you could pay for the membership, get over 200 images to use for your game and then cancel it! If you somehow use up all 1000 credits, it's only $4 to get twice as many credits back!
It's not easy to make NSFW art. I've seen some renders that are super impressive but I have no idea how to get those types of renders! I spent most of my credits just trying to figure it out with mixed results. But, if you learn how to do it, you can render really good NSFW art of your character. Here are some examples so far: https://twitter.com/WaifAIs/status/1577075445383991297 https://twitter.com/SineSian/status/1577089012321263616https://twitter.com/SineSian/status/1577014731314892800 I think they used other nsfw art as reference for the AI to make these.
The ethics of using AI. I'm an artist myself and I make paid commissions. The art this program creates is scary good but I think it can be an amazing tool if used properly! I think you should credit the AI and any artist you used when making your game! With the proof of concept images I made, I feel motivated myself to make a vore game idea that's been knocking around in my head for awhile! I'm too busy to make a vore game for free and I don't want the commitment of making a paid game that I have to constantly update or work on. But that's my opinion as an artist~

Sorry for the info dump but I've been experimenting all day with this and I wanted to share for any aspiring vore game developers! I LOVE playing some of the games made here and I thought it would be a disservice not to share! Plus I wanna see more AI generated vore art~
UPDATE:
The furry diffuse has gotten a lot better! I was able to create a tutorial on how to get some reliable mawshots using this new diffusion.
