Familiars
About
Familiars is a witch themed 2D RPG that was developed in my personal C++ engine over the course of three months. In this game, players become a witch who can create potions, consult tarot cards, and explore an endless forest with an animal familiar. Players can talk to their loyal companion by typing any text input, and a response is generated using natural language processing techniques. The familiar can recognize special commands to perform tasks for the player, but otherwise, it converses as a chatbot.
I love cozy games and am interested in the development of buddy A.I. My goal for this game was to combine those two concepts; I wanted to create a world where players could enjoy a relaxing environment, perform optional thematic tasks, and bond with a friendly A.I. that can display own opinions and emotions. I hope you enjoy, and I look forward to expanding this concept in the future!
