AI Anime Researcher - LLM
tl;dr: We're building a 3D first-person adventure game where an AI companion is the core of the game. Think MiSide https://store.steampowered.com/app/2527500/MiSide/ with LLMs, but truly integrated with gameplay, not just a RP chatbot.
ABOUT US
Here at Spellbrush, we're passionate about making a good anime game.
We also happen to be the world's leading generative AI studio—we're the team behind niji・journey https://nijijourney.com/.
Our mission is simple: use AI to bring characters to life and push the boundaries of narrative-driven games.
What We’re Building
We’ve developed an in-house LLM storytelling system that blends AI, story, and gameplay—going far beyond shallow “chat-only” experiences.
The result is an AI companion who cooperates with you in puzzles, remembers across worlds, and changes how each chapter unfolds.
