Façade (interactive story)


Façade puts the player in the role of a close friend of Grace and Trip, a couple who recently invited the player to their home for roostertails. This pleasant gathering, however, is somewhat damaged by the clear domestic confrontation between Grace and Trip upon the player's entry. Making full use of the incorporated language processing software, the game allows the player to type sentences to "speak" with the couple, either supporting them through their troubles, or driving them farther apart.
Incorporating elements of both video gaming and drama, Façade takes advantage of voice acting and a 3-D environment, as well as natural language processing and other advanced artificial intelligence routines, to provide a robust interactive fiction experience. The player can take an active role in the conversation, pushing the topic one way or another, as in an interactive stage-play. These stage-plays are stored as script text files which can be read after the game is finished.
Façade was released for PC in July 2005, as a free download from the InteractiveStory.net web site.

I replaced most of the textures with Minecraft equivalents. It's not perfect, but I don't feel like spending anymore time on it. Place it in:

[MegaScientifical]

I tried to mod it to use PNGs, but it simply doesn't know how to use them, so we're stuck with the choppy .BMPs unless someone knows how to mod Java.

I'm going to back up the Textures folder and replace all the textures, even if I'm stuck with .BMPs.

[steve5451]

Sounds like fun.
I'll put a mustache on him if I can :3

[MegaScientifical]

Oh God, how did I forget BMP literally has ZERO transparency support? Something wasn't clicking in my head, they must have some complex system for removing white around images... This might get ugly.

Also, I don't see lips in this texture folder, might be in another or formed with vectors.
