🎙️ CALLING ALL VOICE ACTORS - LAST 2 DAYS FOR THE AUDITION!

changed🎙️ CALLING ALL VOICE ACTORS - LAST 2 DAYS!
changedOur AI character gets a REAL HUMAN VOICE.
changedWe’re officially running a public voice casting for A.L.F.-RED - the AI companion who guides Agent THUNDER throughout BARKOUR.
changedSome of you may remember our open casting for THUNDER himself. The response was incredible, and it proved one thing very clearly: great characters deserve great human voice!
changedSo yes - while the obvious choice might be to generate an AI voice with AI, that’s not what we believe in. We believe that all characters (even AI ones) should be written, designed, and performed by real people.
changed⏰ Casting closes on January 5th (This is the final call!)
