Is use of free text to speech websites allowed?

Use of the website below for commercial products is allowed for free (according to the website itself).

No one seems to know, the converter tool is an external asset (ie it's not part of a vanilla game engine) but you could describe it as a generator at a push. But the fact that's free and commercially-viable is irrelevant. It's not about how free assets are,  it's about challenging you to make do with the plain and simple tools you have in Unity (or a different game engine), plus any assets you make yourself.

But you can also see it as a generator where you have controll over input

Eh, I suppose. The word "generator" isn't defined in the rules so I don't really know what they mean :/

So can I use it or not ?

If you use BOSCA Ceoil to make music is kind of the same thing as using text to speech so I feel like it's okay to use it

Idk

Apparently it's not, try to see with an official host before doing so.

You can go into Brackeys' Discord and @ their staff.
