Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 I’m Phoenix D. Akki, the creator of "NPC-Forge". As a developer, I’ve always found traditional game NPC dialogue trees a bit robotic and static. If you want characters to react dynamically to player choices, have real memory, and show emotions, building that system from scratch can take months. I built "NPC-Forge" to solve this. It’s a lightweight, open-source AI engine that gives game developers a way to build autonomous characters with sub-second response times. ⚔️ What makes NPC-Forge special: * Lore Ingestion (RAG) : Drag and drop your game's world-building PDF or pull directly from Wikipedia. The NPC dynamically retrieves and references facts in real-time. * Emotion Engine : The character's Trust, Anger, Respect, Curiosity, and Wariness adjust dynamically based on how the player treats them, altering their mood and dialog style. * Tavern Mode : Select multiple NPCs and watch them converse autonomously with each other based on their relationships and backgrounds. * Voice UI & API Support : Full voice I/O (Whisper + TTS) and a secure FastAPI wrapper for clean integration into Unity or Unreal Engine. Best of all: it is designed to run entirely on free-tier APIs and open-source stacks. NPC-Forge is live and 100% free to try. I’d love to hear your thoughts, feature requests, and suggestions! How can we make AI game characters feel even more alive? 🔗 Try it live: https://phoenix-akki-npc-forge-a... 🔗 Clone the repo: https://github.com/PhOeNiX-Akki/... Thank you for the support! ⚒️
