Scratching an Itch

A game used AI the right way???


Listen Later

nubitoad’s Bomb or Kill puts you on the spot by demanding jokes. You play a comedian in front of an audience who needs to get laughs to get money. I found it interesting that the comments were so amazed by the technology, they forgot their pitchforks!

This game definitely KILLED.

My takeaways:

* Each mini-loop works toward making you feel the emotional core of the game.

* A perfect theme to use AI in the best way

* The scope and design is a certified chef’s KISS: keep it simple stupid

Let me know what you think!
