A couple of months ago, I started playing with the idea of having game buddies, what I now call “brohs” who tag along with you while you game. You call them on Discord and they join your games. It’s not about having a bot with you, but rather a “broh” that remembers you , has its own personality, backstory, etc. and gives you a “real” conversation, potentially trash-talking you. It’s been quite the hackathon journey building all this with so many different modules playing together, and in theory it could support any game that allows mods/customization. Right now added some connectors to Minecraft and Roblox, and some custom experiences, like just discord chatting . Apart from the obvious messing around application, I see this as a way to offer kids a safe environment to play with their favourite characters (imagine Spiderman like broh) or even language learning : where the broh teaches you words or grammar while you play Minecraft. I’m building this with my best friend (I lied I do have a friend) and we are in super early stages, just playing around with it but we figured it was time to get some real (and harsh) feedback on it 🙂 So what do you think? Are we approaching a dystopian future? If you would like to help us shape the future of this project with any feedback and suggestions or would love to try the brohs demo we have set up a discord server for it. Everyone’s invited and since we are still in early building phases we are giving access to the broh channel manually, just drop me a message on general if you’d like to be part of it! https://discord.gg/dXJvq3pM9y About the tech: We connect to the games via a glorified MCP server. For Minecraft for example we use mineflayer, that can perform actions in-game and we build a reasoning engine + MCP on top of it. For voice we are using LiveKit. We have of course also built a solid harness that handles game events, memories, personality, etc. submitted by /u/PH4Nz
