Anuttacon, an indie game developer and publisher founded by HoYoverse CEO Cai Haoyu, has unveiled its debut title, Whispers From The Star, an AI-driven, narrative-focused sci-fi game. This exciting new addition to the gaming world was announced alongside plans for a Closed Beta Test, stirring anticipation among fans and gamers alike.
Anuttacon’s AI-Driven Sci-Fi Game Revealed
Set in a distant galaxy, Whispers From The Star introduces players to Stella, a university student specializing in astrophysics. After a crash landing on the alien planet Gaia, Stella finds herself stranded and relies on her communicator to seek assistance. As players, you will guide Stella through her journey using text, voice, and video messages, forging a unique interactive experience.
The core gameplay of Whispers From The Star revolves around engaging in dynamic conversations with Stella. The developers aim to revolutionize interactive storytelling by moving away from conventional dialogue trees. Instead, they employ AI-enhanced dialogue systems that foster open-ended, fluid, and immersive conversations, as highlighted by Bleeding Cool News.
While the promise of personalized gameplay has sparked excitement, it has also raised concerns on platforms like Reddit. Discussions focus on the emotional implications of forming bonds with AI characters and the broader impact on human actors in the industry, a topic that gained attention during the SAG-AFTRA strike regarding AI's role.
Despite these concerns, Anuttacon is moving forward with a Closed Beta Test for Whispers From The Star, targeting select gamers in the United States. While specific dates and times are yet to be announced, eager players can register on the developer's website to participate. It's important to note that this beta test is exclusively for users with an iPhone 12 or newer; currently, Android devices and iPads are not supported.
