LLM-POWERED NARRATIVE BATTLE SIMULATOR
Mutate 212 animals from all across the animal kingdom and make them fight in this fully local, offline, LLM-generated narrative battle simulator. Your monsters! Your commands! Their actions!
This game utilises eight custom LoRA adapters trained on extensive datasets to form each monster's distinct personality. These datasets contain combinations of words and phrases and ways to use them that, somehow, manage to underpin SLOP FIGHTER's unique, dynamic, and most of all聽dramatic聽narrative battle system.聽There are thousands of combinations of species and types, and tens of thousands of varied, expressive responses for every situation. You can even feed your monsters between battles.聽
You wield a team of three monsters against either CPU or PvP opponents and use fully LLM-generated movesets entirely unique to your monster against them. The battlefield is yours to command. Command EARTH monsters to shake the ground or AIR creatures to strike from the stratosphere. Utilise directional movement to your advantage by giving custom commands. The only limit is your imagination!
EIGHT TYPES
Each of聽SLOP FIGHTER's eight mutation types has its own personality:
FIRE Passionate and intense.
WATER聽Fluid, patient. Like the tide.
AIR聽Light and playful.
EARTH聽Steadfast and immovable.
MUTA聽Broken, unhinged, and grotesque.
TECH聽Calculated and precise, like a machine.
COSM聽Detached and ethereal, both cosmic and mystical.
SHAD聽Hollow and deathly, nightmarish.
212 ANIMALS
SLOP FIGHTER draws from the rich well of the kingdom Animalia and all its phyla. Mutate random animals from all across it, like bears, squid, tigers, and聽vultures. Mutate almost any animal you can imagine. Every animal in聽SLOP FIGHTER聽is defined by its species' traits. Imagine a bird's keen senses, a wolf's territorial instincts, or聽a mole's burrowing ability coming into play. Every animal shows its teeth, or its claws, or its tail, in its responses. That is what truly gives聽SLOP FIGHTER聽its unique edge: every response is weighted by animal traits that define its battle style. Both predator and prey have full opportunity to use everything to their advantage in聽SLOP FIGHTER's robust battle scenarios.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The game runs entirely windowed at 400x240 resolution. It loads from your computer's status bar, either on the right or left side of your screen. It does not divert attention from anything else you have onscreen. It's聽entirely unobtrusive, and play is casual.聽Change the options for loading side聽in settings. You play the game entirely via keyboard. There is no mouse either required or necessary. Use arrow keys to navigate menus, and type commands where required.
PvP play occurs entirely over local Bluetooth. There is no internet server cloud-based dial-up wifi support聽or LAN play.聽SLOP FIGHTER uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or traditional/manual RFCOMM to communicate with other systems. As such, PvP play requires both players be within Bluetooth distance of each other.
At battle start (for PvP) a rough BLE RSSI signal measurement is taken, which works as a VERY rudimentary distance measurement. There are three distances: CLOSE, MID, and FAR.聽This measurement defines the position of both monsters at battle start, so pay attention! Your monsters can use RANGED attacks from FAR distance for better effectiveness, but if you want to start CLOSE, you'd better be ready to brawl.聽 You can even move through the battlefield! Just give direction via a custom command.
Once the battle begins you're off to the races, and now you're using your monster's unique mutations and biological heritage聽to its advantage to defeat other weird, mutated biologica. The game uses status effects, misses, and critical hits for even battles, and despite the simplicity of the game's display, a score of complex calculations are made under the hood for each individual animal and聽mutation type and altogether聽will define聽damage dealt.
