My fellow game dev friend has spent the last 2 hours downloading a virtual machine and learning how to play this game. Watching him play it it seems like a really cool game.

@yoruvii That's amazing to hear - thank you. I appreciate his perseverance! 🙏
Congrats on your submission! Love your instructions, CLI > GUI.
Does this game have different ends in different os? Acutaully I dont know what I summon. But it's really good try.
@bowen It has different endings every time! But the game is the same on each OS. Thanks for playing!
Great concept, and kudos for making a terminal game! Reminds me of a horror version of AI Dungeon.
interesting little text-based adventure game! and so tiny! most of the games I've downloaded so far has been HUGE!
@cshep99 I suppose that's one benefit of having no graphics, audio, or game engine! 😅
That's an amusing use for a GenAI. Was fun seeing what it would spit out at me when I did things like answer "pancakes" for every question :laughing:
@epb9000 Now I must try "pancakes" for every answer. 😂
Definitely would never think of using GenAI like this. Innovation at it's finest! Kind of makes me feel like I am playing a really smart version of one of those classic adventures from yore!
I spent like 15 minutes just giving random answers, I particularly loved how it reacted when I replied with the first verse of "Never gonna give you up"!
@ryrumeli Thanks so much! It's great to hear that you got so much enjoyment out of it.
Spooky AI Madlibs.
I have to say that the Readme and EULA made me very wary of running this program, so mood accomplished. I hope my laptop is not haunted by this summoning I performed.
@vivid-hallucination Best of luck to you!
Capture.PNG Oh no, what horrific monster have I summoned? I had a lot of fun figuring out how to prompt jailbreak this :joy:. It's a pretty simple application of an LLM, but still very fun to play around with.
@kaliuresis I guess you unlocked the "good" ending? 😂 Congratulations! Enjoy your new companion.
Intresting concept, but i did not get it, how to play and what am i doing wrong.
Really interesting idea. Kind of wish there was more story after the summoning. Also, I was able to just run the exe without using any cmd or anything else. Good job with the game.
Such a lot of innovation and perfectly aligned with the theme! I'm also thrilled by the bold choice to use a console application in the classic DOS style, which I absolutely loved. I appreciate that you indicate the use of the internet without collecting any information. It would be fantastic to have old-style speaker music; I think it would add a great touch. Great game!
Really had a ton of fun you should be proud! Game play was really enjoyable, with a few polishes here and there it would be steam ready!
Very fun game. It's a really compelling idea and it's a nice way for the player to show some of their own creativity. I wish the game was longer, with a way to interact with the monster once it's summoned. But overall a great game, I played it quite a few times to see the different kinds of monsters I could summon.
@custodi Thanks for giving it a try! It's kind of a twist on Mad Libs. The answers you give to the questions are fed into ChatGPT (along with a prompt I wrote) to generate the creature description at the end. The creature that gets summoned is supposed to have characteristics that relate to your responses.
@milq Thanks so much! As for the disclaimer, my AI lawyers told me to say that, so I'll pass on the thanks! 😂
@joshua-miller-pio Thank you very much - I AM proud! 😎 Also, I'm currently working on some post-jam updates with enhanced "graphics"...
@linus-lindberg Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed the creativity aspect, and it's nice to hear you got several playthroughs out of it.
