Use of Open Source AI
Utilizing open source AI has been a game-changer for us. We drew upon the brilliant open source models hosted on Hugging Face to generate various elements in our game, enriching it with unique music, audio, and text. Music Generation: https://huggingface.co/spaces/facebook/MusicGen Text Generation: https://huggingface.co/tasks/text-generation Audio Generation: https://huggingface.co/spaces/haoheliu/audioldm-text-to-audio-generation We are deeply appreciative of the power and possibilities that open source AI offers. It has not only streamlined our creative process but has also provided us with innovative ways to enhance our players' experience. We are excited to continue exploring its potential in shaping the future of our games.

Theme
Step into an immersive experience that reimagines your desktop as a whole new universe of interactivity. Our game is no ordinary adventure - it's an exhilarating journey that embraces the theme of "expanding," challenging players to redefine the boundaries of traditional gaming. Upon entering this world, players are given the task of expanding a virtual laptop window. It sounds simple, but with every click, drag, and interaction, it becomes clear - this game is no run-of-the-mill quest. Every element on this digital landscape serves a purpose. From concealed functionalities within unsuspecting icons to cryptic codes hidden within files, the desktop comes alive, and even the most familiar elements, like your scanner app, hold unexpected surprises. With each discovery, new pop-up elements emerge, broadening the depth of the gaming experience. At the heart of our game is a tantalizing mystery: the secret method to expanding windows. This challenge is more than just a task - it's a metaphor for pushing boundaries and growing beyond your horizons. As players, you'll need to tap into your creativity, look at things from a different perspective, and dare to think outside the box. Our goal is to take the ordinary and turn it into something extraordinary, providing an immersive experience that mirrors our theme of "expanding." We invite you to embark on a unique gaming adventure that transforms your everyday desktop into an exciting realm of discovery. Made by David Liao, Kazama Chen, and Amy Yin

I'm crazy about this pc desktop setting, very like it!

I loved this game, it was amazing! What did you use for the unicorns text generation? It was very convincing!

Thanks for your feedback, and we are glad that you liked it :)

We used the classic chat-gpt 3.5 and  https://huggingface.co/tasks/text-generation for text generation!

Due to issues of a package that we used (which occurred after the game jam and is out of our control), the original version is not stable. After confirming with the organizer of the game jam, we are not allowed to resubmit our build, but we can provide a link to our new project.

Please play this version instead: https://amyy002.itch.io/unicorn-ai-desktop-quest.

Thanks for your time!

Really not sure what I just witnessed. It's cool, and super creative, but I'm really not sure what I was supposed to do. MOved the unicorn around and got to the number guessing. There's something in there, Keep going!

Thanks so much for taking the time to try our game. Would you mind playing this version instead?  https://amyy002.itch.io/unicorn-ai-desktop-quest This version should work after you move to the number guessing, where an AI will walk you through the process. Let me know if you encounter any issues!

Looking for a little hint? Our game's all about 'expanding'. So, keep an eye out for anything you can make bigger in the game.

Thanks for checking out our game. We hope you enjoy it ;D
