Postmortem

Successes:

• Creating a multilevel game with a highly complex game structure where I have 5 NPCs linked to ChatGPT, each with a different NPC backstory, and creating a World backstory all of which give the GPT context about how to respond -- very challenging!
• Terrain design per scene matching the brand colors of the company whose data I am pulling from 

Failures:

• Had to remove speech-to-text functionality to get the game working
• Small glitches remain in the game
• Wanted to have way more mirrors per level, but this doesn't work 

What I learned:

• Became much better at debugging code
• Learned how to integrate video, sound, trigger new camera set ups within a scene
• Learned how to rig and animate 3D characters
• Learned how to design 3D avatars 
• Learned how to integrate APIs into Unity
• Learned how to use Terrain builder and how to modify the skybox and lighting 
• Was able to fix text-to-speech!!!  

Next Steps: 

• Reintegrating text-to-speech
• Refining ChatGPT requests further to get a more accurate picture of myself in these clones and to further reduce hallucination
• Bettering the UI even more
