The premise sounds funny, but I am not going to switch from Firefox to do speech recognition and I don't want a transcript being sent to OpenAI, either. I'll have to pass on this one, sorry.

It's an interesting concept with very neat art and dialogue, but i was not able to get the voice recognition to work when running in Edge... Looks cool though!

@mr-sun Sorry about that! Edge doesn't support the web speech recognition API unfortunately. Chrome and Safari should work.

@mDuo13 Fair enough!

Text transcripts only (no audio) are sent to OpenAI to judge your pitch. Unlike ChatGPT, API inputs are not used for training or retained long-term. Check out their [API Platform FAQ](https://openai.com/enterprise-privacy) for more info.

Support for speech recognition can be enabled in Firefox by toggling `media.webspeech.recognition.enable` in about:config, YMMV.

Chrome uses a cloud service for speech recognition. Firefox uses Google's service too, but Google doesn't store voice requests from [Firefox](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Web_Speech_API_-_Speech_Recognition#Where_does_the_audio_go.3F) and they are anonymized. Safari does speech recognition on-device on iOS 15+, otherwise using a cloud service.

What an interesting idea! I was SO put on the spot with this one, which is how it must feel in real life, I loved it! Great use of AI technology, and cool prompts to get you started too! Great work :)

This was 100% the most stressful experience in this Ludum Dare so far.

It's an interesting concept, and worked great in Chrome. Unfortunately, the weird-looking dudes were not impressed with my pitches.

Really fun idea and some good humour (pitching an idea for Only-Cans) lol. Also the first game jam game that made use of my microphone. Nice work!

Amazing title! Love the art style and character designs that was really awesome. There was some really funny parts in here and i think the game came together really well :D It's awesome to see the effort here. Really cool to see creative use of AI here <3

I like your take on the theme and your usage of AI was interesting!

Really innovative. Cool concept and execution. Also the art is great at setting the mood.

I know AI can be controversial but i love to see people try to use it to make games.

What an innovative response. You guys are definitely pushing that bleeding edge in terms of seeing what's out there to play with. I wasn't able to get speech recognition to work in the time I had, but I can see all the gears turning - very, very cool response to the prompt and use of modern tools. Excited to see where this field goes and good on you for having a play with it during a jam.

Wow!!! This game is so creative! I would never think about an elevator pitch for the theme! And the way it's so interactive with the player is awesome! That's really impressive!

fatemperor 2023-10-11 08:03

Very unusual.

raptorspank 2023-10-11 22:27

Really unique idea! Not necessarily the most fun gameplay so to speak, but definitely fun to mess around with and using AI to generate a response is a creative use of the tech at least. It's a neat take on the theme too, I wouldn't have thought about having a limited amount of space for your speech so great job on that too.

It feel like i should be paid to play this game xD Played just after a Roleplay session so it was smooth transition.

wenzav 2023-10-18 04:21

A very unique idea! The speech recognition works well even though English is not my first language!
