SMWL Project

SMWL (temporary name) is a game in which the player can write words that come alive. Players can create objects, such as vehicles, furniture, plants and much more and then interact with them using verbs. The idea would be to create some kind of textual Scribblenauts .

How it works ? I started using the Wiktionary to get the definitions of a big amount of words. Then I used spaCy for Natural Language Processing (nlp) so that using their definitions, I could kind of assign some 'modifiers' to the words and understand relations between words in the definition (i.e a tree is a plant, a forest is a group of trees, ...). I used the results to create a database that I can load in Godot, an open-source game engine. Then I just needed to create functions and scenes in Godot that could match the 'modifiers'. 

It is still not working properly and it still needs a lot more work.
