Honestly, a lot of what I'm seeing here just doesn't entice me to engage much. I'd rather just repost books compared to joining any of the nonsense that's on my feed right now. (So... comment your links and books and whatnot so I can repost them?)

I'd just hard code NPC's for Hydra's Wake, there's literally less than 30 people total, and there's only 7 people in one grouping at the most that'd be relevant for gameplay. And even that'd be short. lol But that's also to preserve the bits of the book where the player gets to explore things from different perspectives. Which would allow me to generate a level-style story progression as compared to an open world dynamic.

@CreatureAuthor I've been thinking about trying to play with (low dimension) core-relational AI to govern NPCs instead of relying on a series of behavioral scripts.

I learned Unity years ago in a different pre-AI bullshit costing my job life. Even with the licensing whackadoodle, I still refer it over Unreal for personal flair. I thought about it for Hydra's Wake mainly because the bulk of the story happens in one physical spot (albeit with lots to explore), and it wouldn't be difficult to build a big enough space to accomplish what a game adaptation would need to be. Less worldbuilding in a literal sense, and more game mechanics to pull it off. lol Which is a bit ironic because physical level design was my skillset. I can make some things move when called upon, but I'd need to shake some serious rust off and relearn a lot for a full package though.

@CreatureAuthor Yeah! I thought about Unity for a bit, but last year's licensing shenanigans have left me gun shy. My story universe has some light litRPG elements, so it would be an easy adaptation. And I could capture in-game footage to portray space battles and marine/mecha ground actions.

I meant building a game. That's a bit of a project. I'm much more familiar with Unity than Unreal though. That said, I have actually tinkered on a design for a Hydra's Wake game. Still poke at it once in a while, but that project would take a whole decade to finish to the standard I'd want if I got serious about it.

@CreatureAuthor It helps me keep track of the worldbuilding evolution. And I find that puzzling out how to deal with a societal plot hole gets me through the occasional writer's block.

@CreatureAuthor Same. It's 99% post/rinse/repeat engagement farming. I've lost all interest. Thank you for boosting my fast-paced dystopian noir thriller, Pig Farm. It's the first in a trilogy. Book two, Primal Silence, is also available. Book three is due this fall. a.co/d/08wntRYE

‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ has become the first ever film to premiere in the stratosphere. A bespoke IMAX display was sent into space that played footage from the film.
