It's an open source project slowly rotting.

Things that need doing:

1. Upgrade to Godot 4

2. Integrate VoiceCraft (nobody reads anymore)

3. Find ongoing support for a Maintainer

I prefer reading instead of hearing some TTS or Voice AI reading things. For proper audio experience, a VA makes things probably better, though that has some cost to it as well. Otherwise just stick to text.
As @jna_sh mentioned, they are working on a 2.0 release : https://chaos.social/@blinry/111011979500389143

I won't even comment on the rest of points.

Is point 2 serious? Do programmers not read anymore?
yeah I just type random letters on my keyboard and keep hoping my code run
If you're going to pitch something as a game, it needs voice. Integration is simple. What's the problem? Are git incantations too powerful to be spoken aloud?

No?.. Idk what games you play, but there are an endless mountain of games with no voiceovers. It makes a lot more sense for games that have a lot of text (like this one), because reading is far faster than listening to speech. In general, I vastly prefer text to voice.

Great thing about software, you can turn features on and off.

Why? The majority of the games I have don't include voice.

What?
Hey?
