Rave Rhapsody Part II: The Hardcore Techno Odyssey of Love


Remember "Rave Rhapsody"?
It was an AI-controlled "game" that we released earlier this year. You can play it by copying a prompt into ChatGPT - and ChatGPT will generate the game for you!
It was a decide-your-own-destiny type interactive novel (text only) that allowed you to experience the thrilling, and sometimes surreal, life of being a Hardcore Techno DJ.
Omnicore Records included it as the bonus gimmick to their "double album" Rave Hardcore compiliaton release on bandcamp ( https://doomcorerecords.bandcamp.com/album/rave-rhapsody-the-hardcore-techno-odyssey )
If you enjoyed this game, or are curious in general, then we got something for you!
A sequel has been created, and it adds a new, romantic spin to, as it is the first Hardcore Techno Dating Sim.
You still play the role of a Hardcore Techno DJ, but this time it's (almost) all about love, love, love (and that's all you need!).

Rave Rhapsody Part II: The Hardcore Techno Odyssey of Love
