The Bridge

This semester, I am the Technical Lead of a super-cool Science Fiction game called The Bridge.

In the game, you command starship entirely with voice control.

Here are some of the innovate things the game has going for it:

• Speech Recognition as a seamless part of gameplay
• The player can say things like:
• "Weapons, fire missiles at enemy ship alpha"
• "Navigator, engage defense orbit"
• Dynamic Story Engine
• Every actor in the game is an Entity
• Entities have Relationships with other Entities
• Relationships evolve throughout gameplay
• Result: fully procedural storytelling
• Emotional Voice Recognition
• The player's tone is interpreted by the game
• This affects crew loyalty towards the player

Of course, that's only the beginning.
