Apologies to everyone wanting to participate! I've identified at least 2 major issues that are preventing a majority of people from recording audio. I aim to release a post-jam version that addresses these issues, and some others.

Thank you to everyone who gave this a shot. I know this game asked more of you than the average title. I really wish the outcome had been worth it, but I will try again.

Sounds like a super cool concept, but I couldn't get my microphone working on the Windows version :(

I used the test on the main menu and the audio came out super slowed down for some reason. I love the idea though, message me if you end up finding a fix because I'd love to participate

What an interesting concept! I submitted and I'm pretty eager to come back and see what I get tomorrow!

Hey, thanks for trying this out! Sadly, the audio file uploaded ended up as silence :-(. I'm still trying to trace the issue. This has happened to another Windows machine, too. Your recording should be saved on your machine somewhere under `%APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Lore of the Wild\recording_audio.wav`. If you find it, I'm curious if that version has audio.

I really appreciate you giving it a shot and am sorry about the outcome. I reset your status to Listening, and also set you to the 1st generation, so you can record your own custom story if you'd like. I will retest on my machine tonight as well.

Extremely nifty idea! I had some issues figuring out if I was supposed to type the story anywhere, but listening to the other stories was pretty seamless.

Thank you! Transcribing to text happens automatically on the server.

By the way, if you're JuicedFerret, could you try to re-upload a recording? For some reason, what ended up on the server was a silent clip 0:44 long. I reset the user's status to Listening.
