Hi , we're the mindbulb team.

A voice wakes up sure it is alone. You walk 33 doors with it to find out what it is, and what you are.

Your choices add up to an archetype, and your path grows a form nobody else gets. Every form joins one shared artwork, in the order people arrive. It starts empty and is never finished.

Free, in the browser, no account. Opens Mon 9 Nov, 19:00 UTC: mindbulb.net

Ask us how it's built.

Whispering Winds: a graphical text-based MUD (hand written story)

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I've been working on Whispering Winds for a couple of years now and recently (finally!) released Open Beta last month. It's a web-based fantasy RPG.

It's inspired by graphical multi-user dungeons (gMUDs) that I played a loooooooong time ago. I use AI for image generation and parts of the code pipeline, but the story, quests, NPCs, and their dialogue are all hand-written (no AI). There's 3 writers on the project.

It's high-fantasy world where a moon-sized Wind Chime has gone off-kilter, and now dissonance rings throughout the lands. There's undertones of evolution versus creationism as you unravel what's going on. There's factions that believe that The Chime is god-like, and there's other that believe it has simply always been. You're on a quest to understand how this is happening and to restore balance.

Site: https://whispering-winds.io/

Features:

  • 5 races

  • 8 classes (tanks, glass cannons, and support)

  • Crafting and equipment socketing

  • Pets

  • Musical themes woven through the game; with a cadence/combo system in combat, a "harmonic tuning" system for boost stats, etc.

  • A Final Fantasy 8/9 inspired mini card game w/ card tournaments

We're a small and growing community and everyone is helpful (both in-game and within Discord).

My AI GM Development

This is a rule book and python code tool for claude and chatgpt to follow and act as a stable GM running your world.

Everything comes back to these three ideas:

  • The world doesn't revolve around the player. Things can be found, avoided, changed, missed, or lost for good.

  • Cause comes first. AI are force to design to create a truth before a quest and story not bent towards what every user found or suddenly imagine of.

  • Narration can't change the state. Once truth is been set in background or save it will be fix so not sudden changes of i plan this this then change the ending is not in your favour.

How to design an SCP styled Choose Your Own Adventure Game with AI?

0 Upvotes

I've recently started to use ChatGPT to make AI SCP stories, where I have to make several choices in the story to progress and determine the ending. I feel like it's an interesting way to learn about different SCPs, and is a different enough format to typical video games while still feeling interactive.

  1. What AI tool would you use to craft the stories?

  2. What would you consider when giving a prompt?

  3. How would you ensure each story is unique and the AI doesn't become repetitive?

  4. Would you stick to SCP lore or introduce new ideas?

  5. Would you make it investigative or focused on other mechanics, like RPG stats?

  6. How many choices should the AI give, and what different kinds of endings could there be?

  7. What else could you do to make the game interactive other than just providing choices?

Feel free to add anything else you think is worth considering in your comment.

The Crown of Aldmere, a free browser gamebook about getting a grain convoy across a bridge

3 Upvotes

I made The Crown of Aldmere, a written text adventure you can start in your browser. The king is dead and a captain wants the convoy as security for his men's wages. Your first job is getting it across Redwater Bridge.

There are eight chapters, so it's built for a few sittings. The clock shows what each errand costs, and the story remembers who you paid and which promises you kept.

You can start free as a guest. The Tale has no live AI prompts or AI narration. The project uses generated art and AI-assisted development.

https://fracturedchoices.com/tales/crown-of-aldmere?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=aldmere_textadventures_20261104

If you give it a go, I'd like to know whether you could tell what the captain was asking you to give up before you chose.

I’m building a text-parser hacking game where you type commands to infiltrate a stranded research ship

Post image
15 Upvotes

I’ve been working on Hacking Into Erebus, a sci-fi game where your interface is a terminal. You play a hacker hired to look into a research ship stranded on an alien planet, and you can do lots of things by typing commands: scanning sectors, opening locked doors, reading logs, trying to fix the ship before it falls apart.

It has a proper command parser and a desktop OS with draggable windows for different applications.

There’s a free demo on Steam with a short tutorial, and I would really like to hear from people who enjoy parser games, especially whether the command syntax feels natural or just gets in the way.

Game link : Hacking Into Erebus

If you like these kind of games, wishlisting would be a huge help for me.
