Show HN: Snatched! – My game where you lure LLM-powered NPCs to your alien ship

13 pointsby __cayenne__about 1 year ago
I built a 3d browser based game that lets you speak into your mic and talk to LLM powered NPCs. You play as an alien tasked with abducting humans by luring them back to your ship. This is a playable early access / demo sized experience. Hope you can try it out!

My immediate reaction is to assume bad faith:<p>- bad video, doesn’t explain anything (literally a waste of time to watch it)<p>- no landing page, no privacy policy or details of app structure&#x2F;stack<p>- requires sharing data (Discord -&gt; Voice)<p>I like the idea&#x2F;concept but because of the above I am not going to bother.

Is it really necessary to force us to join your Discord server to play the game?

I played it through. It was OK... though once I figured out the basics it felt too easy. Each character had their hook, and telegraphed that hook via their dialog, so I just had to make some story related to that. And I suppose choose an appropriate character to take over, though I appreciated that while it seemed like some background characters were specifically intended for some targets it also wasn&#x27;t required to use that character.<p>Anyway, I suppose it&#x27;s fine for level 1 that it&#x27;s fairly easy. But I think it&#x27;s going to be a challenge to figure out how to make it harder it later levels. Maybe more extended social engineering? Though I&#x27;m not sure I have the patience to be a pretend conman.

I noped out of there when it required a third party signin to play.

Was going to try it - canceled because of Discord.

Not interested if it requires Discord.

I think the premise is really interesting! looking forward to seeing where it goes.

hey all, thanks for checking it out. the game is in an early state and so we&#x27;re hoping to get feedback from people as we iterate and discord makes that easier for us
