Thanx, Athanasius.
Grandad is currently in testing phase and will soon be released.
Mortville manor is frozen because of some VA issues annd MotM will be finished up soon.
And The Curse (a remake of Klatwa, originally a Polish-language only adventure game) is also finished up soon. I had to rewrite this game completely again because i made a mistake in the design.
Thank you, sir :)
Yes, Mortville Manor had voice synth but that sounded very unclear and robotically which made each spoken line quite hard to 'decypher' as player.
The nowadays 'natural voices' synths are pretty cool, but still sound a bit off here and there. So therefor VA would be the best to replace the original voice synth Mortville Manor used.
So, if for some reason I can't find enough voice actors/actresses, I'll stick with text only indeed.
We'll see...
I simply have no experience in creating speech synthesis voices. I've also no idea if there's software available to do so.
Finding voice actors/actresses is indeed very hard. Once I have the audio, putting it all together isn't hard though, I've been an audio editor on several commercial games in the past working with voice actor/actress audio lines, clean up and edit and get it all in the game.
Thank you!
Several games, like this one, are originally only available using a foreign (non-English) language. This one is Polish of origin.
That might be why many people don't know of them and that's also one of the reasons I'm remaking them into English versions: to make them wider available (and often improve them slightly too) :)
It's surprising how many good but non-English games there are from the late 80s up to the first half of the 90s retro era.
