We’re a small team of indie game devs who love playing survivalcraft games, and we’ve created an AI NPC Companion mod for Valheim called Thrall (now available on Thunderstore). The AI companion is powered by the OpenAI API and integrates with the Jotunn framework for the Valheim client mod.
You can roleplay, banter, and even flirt with these companions in game using chat or voice commands. Plus, you can change their personalities to characters such as Elon Musk or Hermione Granger (or anyone you fancy) and command them to perform in-game actions like chopping wood, guarding against enemies, or patrolling your settlements. It's still super janky, so please be patient with us if some commands don't quite work out!
Feel free to try it out and give us some feedback :)
Very cool, might make me revisit Valheim. Can you use local Whisper/ChatGPT-style APIs yet? I remember Valheim having a light toll on my system, I'd be curious to see if you can run the full inference stack on the same GPU playing the game...
Feel free to try it out and give us some feedback!
You can't use local chatgpt-style apis yet but you're not the first person who's asked to use their own models/api keys so we might build that out soon - stay tuned!
