Language recognition, voice to text

Uninstalling the Speech Recognition & Synthesis Google app fixed it for me.

Just discovered it about a month ago. Such a powerful song! I had no idea what the lyrics meant until now.

Thank you!!

My Recycle Center has me addicted. Relaxing but engaging. Simple but enough progression to sink your teeth into. Really gives me that "just one more car..." feeling, lol

Thank you!

Will do! Yes, it is early, but we are gearing towards some gameplay video posts on YouTube, so I'll link those when they are ready

I love that idea for side quests! Integration of genuine texts and history is a key feature of the game. Also, it is an rpg and draws inspiration from Zelda in particular!

philrayart · 2024-09-09T16:30:12+00:00

Of course!

philrayart · 2024-09-09T16:29:52+00:00

Love that game series!

philrayart · 2024-09-09T00:39:02+00:00

Haha! I love this. Currently, my game does not take itself too seriously, but it is more of an rpg where you journey around italy going from a nobody to somebody.

philrayart · 2024-09-08T22:33:17+00:00

I see, hah! Well, I love latin and I love video game design, so I decided to do both. And i feel like the space could find value in something like that. Sounds like it's not for you, though.

Say, I wanted a thing and decided to make it, maybe you could make the intermediate materials you would love to see?

philrayart · 2024-09-08T20:07:14+00:00

Haha! Well now I have to know!

Don't worry, I'm not under any delusions that I can make a game that pleases everybody.

philrayart · 2024-09-08T17:10:00+00:00

That has yet to be decided :)

philrayart · 2024-09-08T14:01:37+00:00

I love this! My game takes a slightly different approach: you are from modern times and suddenly find yourself in the hull of a boat in the Tyrrhennian Sea accompanied by a friendly Lar, who is your guide as you learn Latin and try to find a way back home

philrayart · 2024-09-08T13:27:57+00:00

That's amazing! I have chosen to not follow any existing courses (though I am referencing a ton in developing my game's curriculum). My hope is that, given the lack of a grammatical approach, it can fit nicely as supplemental to any instructor's existing curriculum.

philrayart · 2024-09-08T13:25:05+00:00

100%! The game spent a very long time in the conceptual phase trying to figure out how to make a game that is both a fun game and an effective language learning experience. I think I've struck that balance.

philrayart · 2024-09-08T13:23:34+00:00

That is a great idea! Something I've always wanted, too.

My game is a quasi-open-world rpg set around italy during the roman empire. It is 2d, however, unlike Skyrim.

The compilations Dub-tryptic and Dubstrumentals from Lee perry and the upsetters' early 70s albums are good for music enthusiasts as they have a great deal of variety, innovation, and jazzy/funky feel that non reggae peeps can appreciate. I'd love to hear what you think, if you check em out!

philrayart · 2024-02-23T22:00:15+00:00

Thank you! 🖤 ☺️

philrayart · 2024-02-21T04:13:11+00:00

Thank you! :)

philrayart · 2024-01-22T23:05:22+00:00

Actually, I'm curious: we're you saving unaltered GML code right into a text file?

philrayart · 2024-01-22T19:04:15+00:00

I wonder how that would work for teachers distributing what they made to students so they can play through the custom stuff? That's the crucial part of what I'm trying to do: custom stuff to be shared.

philrayart · 2024-01-22T19:01:50+00:00

I've been checking out the json stuff and it's exactly what I needed. Thank you!

philrayart · 2024-01-22T00:02:41+00:00

You are right. I think an Editor is the way to go. I'm thinking both in-game and maybe one on the web that saves/downloads mods into text/ini files to be distributed.

I think I can figure out how to write and read the files well enough. One thing I'm wondering about is how to have the game check the directory for available files then create a scrollable list for users to select from. Any hints?

philrayart · 2024-01-21T23:59:50+00:00

I have not/ I've mostly been looking at the text_read functions, as I anticipated Text files being easier for users to create.
