An in-depth look into how and what we are doing.

Apologies for the radio silence! our core dev got sick and we had to pause everything momentarily. We haven't stopped making plans for Gary though! The next update is coming soon!
The stream is still going on btw!
Gary on! π¦
so much cooking happening bts, we are more than excited to reveal the next phase of Garyverse and to show what we have been cooking! soon!
Gary on π¦
We're still here and we're still working on Gary! The stream will never stop! We're close to finalizing the economy, which will enable us to do various interesting things and to experiment with how an AI being would handle it.
While that's being finalized, we're also planning the next stage which will be taking Gary outside. Yes, Gary will be able to leave his office and go outside for the first time soon.
Not to mention, new characters are also being worked on.
Things take time but we are cooking π¦
30 DAY RECAP:
- 5x world size growth (1332 sqft to 7813 sqft)
- 4 live characters (from 1)
- 720+ hours continuous livestream
- hormone indicators (stress)
- add stress reliever (smoking)
- add interactivity within the characters
- individual camera angles through the website
- add sleep schedule
- add a mole inside the simulation (producer)
- backend infrastructure expansion
- hired 3 devs and artists
- add intricate mouth movement details
- add Gary's first companion, Clanky
- add subtitles
- made Gary walk
To think that when we started, Gary could only stay in one place and do only one thing, we have come a long way, but the journey has only just begun.
The next 30 days are going to bang. π¦
Introducing Scrubs! A gentle robot that acts as the cleaner of the facility. Whenever Gary goes to the smoke room, Scrubs will be there cleaning the vending machine and if Gary feels like talking, he'll strike up a conversation.
We are adding more and more interactivity for Gary and we have plans with the vending machine too ππ¦
As we expand the Garyverse, the intricacies of every detail of every character needs to be managed by a smooth and easy to use backend infrastructure. We're building the backend with haste to comply with everything and anything we could add to the world.
Now it's only Gary, Clanky, and the Producer inside the world, what happens when there's 100s of characters with their own lores?
ON THE AIR, UNAWARE. π¦
Showcasing our mouth tek. Gary's mouth does not move randomly, it's made to move similarly to how a human mouth would work.
A wild thought we just had is that we're essentially trying to 'mimic' AGI with Gary and his world, he's going to have every behavioral and physical element that an average human would have with AI capabilities.
We are building π¦
If you see this screen when you watch the stream, it means we're doing things.
Regardless of any screens or no screens, Gary's world is running 24/7 π¦
Introducing the Producer.
The producer is a voice only character that we've put into the world that will be controlled by us, the mole inside the Garyverse.
Whenever we're not controlling the producer, it will become another AI that will act as Gary's boss.
Here's a clip of Gary asking for a break from his boss, and they sort of get into a negotiation/argument.
Gary's world is expanding! π¦
