I've done some research on creating an AI-powered text adventure with a murder mystery theme. It turned out pretty well, and I think we'll see a lot of AI-powered RPG NPCs in the future. The speed is good, but the tokens are too expensive. One playthrough (~10 minutes) costs around €1.

Making great progress on procedural maps! The game will feature 8 diverse biomes, each with its own advantages, making the map more replayable.
🌨️ Tundra
🌾 Steppe
🌲 Forest
🌿 Meadows
🪨 Rock lands
🏙️ City
🔥 Savanna
🏜️ Desert

Some new "trees" for the new biomes in #RuinsToFortress.
The next big update will be amazing! Finally, procedural maps and seven biomes instead of two.

After a very long time, I'm participating in a Game Jam again. The theme is "kaputt." My interpretation of this is that the light in the level is broken—luckily, there are matches, paint, and occasional lightning flashes.

If you're planning to make a free-to-play competitive multiplayer game, here's a tip: Don't do it!
Implementing anti-cheat measures is a Sisyphean task and takes up valuable time and resources that could be spent on further developing the game.

First: Thanks a lot!
Unfortunately, there is no official support yet. We are testing some alternatives for input (e.g. smarter pickup or placement of objects without using the mouse).
However, it "runs" on Steam Deck with mouse emulation.
