Dynamic Dialogue Trees
Instead of choosing 'Option A, B, or C', users speak directly to characters. The character's personality LLM evaluates the input and formulates a response in real-time.
Real-time Environment Generation
Using technologies like Blockade Labs, the physical environment of the story can shift dynamically based on the emotional tone of the ongoing conversation.
State Tracking over Long Contexts
The greatest challenge is maintaining narrative coherence. We utilize extensive system prompts and external memory retrieval to ensure characters remember past interactions accurately.
