Devlog #6 - A.R.I.A has a new voice!

Tales of Tomorrow: Experiment

ToT: Experiment is a sci-fi short story game set on a remote ship wandering through space. Without any memories or recollection of his past our hero is tasked by the ship AI - AR.I.A. to perform daily tasks, that will help to maintain the ship.

AR.I.A is (except the Player) the most important character in the game. So it was very important to us that her voice is very well made, and adapted to what we wanted to achieve. First iterations of her voice were generated on the computer through voice generating software and then edited to have more computer-like sound. It was great and fitted the game fine, but we still believed that it needed to be more alive and acted out, though recorded by a living human. That’s how we came in contact with Sammi Price. As she says about herself: [i]Sammi Price is an Australian-born, Wisconsin-raised, and New York City based actor, voiceover artist, and writer. They have performed across countless New York City stages as well as regionally, and are a member of the Actor's Equity Association. Sammi studied acting at The American Academy of Dramatic Arts Acting Conservatory in Manhattan, NY. They are the founder of 'Sammi Price Voice', providing voiceovers for commercial, audio book, character animation, film/television, video games, and more. They have collaborated with companies such as L’Oreal, The World Health Organization, 104.9 FM, and of course a favorite- AR.I.A! Sammi is also a spoken-word artist, having performed their poetry centering on human right activism in venues and universities across the country. They are absolutely thrilled to work with the Duality Games team.[/i] Visit her page: http://www.sammiprice.com/ And see for yourself, how her voice perfectly fits the game: [previewyoutube=tJ3obiPnCRw;full][/previewyoutube] We are extremely excited about this!
