Anuttacon Unveils AI-Driven Sci-Fi Game
Set in a distant galaxy, "Whispers From The Star" introduces players to Stella, an astrophysics student who finds herself stranded on the alien planet Gaia after a crash landing. With only her communicator as her lifeline, Stella reaches out to the player for guidance. As her guide, you'll engage with Stella through text, voice, and video messages, shaping her journey and decisions.
The heart of the gameplay lies in your conversations with Stella, which are powered by cutting-edge AI technology. Anuttacon aims to revolutionize interactive storytelling by moving beyond conventional dialogue trees. According to Bleeding Cool News, the developers are crafting an experience where AI-enhanced dialogue fosters open-ended, fluid, and deeply personal interactions, enhancing the immersive quality of the game.
While the potential for personalized gameplay has sparked excitement, the AI-driven nature of "Whispers From The Star" has also raised concerns within the gaming community. Discussions on platforms like Reddit highlight worries about the emotional impact of forming relationships with AI characters and the broader implications for human actors in the industry, especially in light of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike focusing on AI's role.
Despite these concerns, anticipation for "Whispers From The Star" remains high. Anuttacon has announced a Closed Beta exclusively for select gamers in the United States. Although an exact date and time haven't been disclosed yet, eager players can sign up on the developer's website to reserve their spot. It's important to note that this beta test is limited to "iPhone 12 or above," with no current support for Android devices or iPads.
