Loreguard
AI NPC engine that runs on players machine, no pay per token
Loreguard launched on March 24, 2026.
What it does
AI NPC engine that runs inference on the player's GPU. Every response verified against your lore docs. No per-token APIs Web console to build NPCs: personality, voice, knowledge base, trust gates, goals Trust gates — NPCs reveal secrets based on the player's trust level. Social engineering becomes a game mechanic. Runs on small open-source models (Qwen 3.5 9B works well)
AI NPC engine that runs inference on the player
Every NPC response is verified against your lore docs. Ungrounded claims are flagged and filtered. Chat with Zero, a hacker NPC. Browse his knowledge files on the right to verify every claim is grounded. Upload your game bible, lore documents, character sheets. NPCs only speak from what you've written. Every NPC statement is checked against your documents using NLI. Contradictions get filtered out before reaching the player. The model runs on the player's machine. Min 6GB VRAM (RTX 2060+). Gate NPC knowledge behind trust levels. Players build relationships to unlock information. Social engineering and interrogation built in. Unity, Godot, Unreal. Anything that speaks HTTP or WebSocket.…from loreguard.com

AI-town, run your own custom AI world SIM with JavaScript2023 · github.com · ▲429Hi HN community! We want to share AI-town, a deployable starter kit for building and customizing your own version of AI simulation - a virtual town where AI characters live, chat and socialize. Inspired by great work from the Stanford Generative Agent paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442). A few features: - Includes a convex.dev backed server-side game engine that handles global state - Multiplayer ready. Deployment ready - 100% Typescript - Easily customizable. You can fork it, change character memories, add new sprites/tiles and you have a custom AI simulation…
LLM-powered NPCs running on your hardware2024 · github.com · ▲24Hey HN, My team is open-sourcing the inference stack and fined-tuned models we use to create LLM-powered NPCs: https://github.com/GigaxGames/gigax The generative agents paper [1] pioneered the idea of prompting LLMs to create autonomous NPCs. But existing implementations require multiple calls to an LLM to make the agent plan its day, chat with people, and interact with its environment [2]. Our approach allows NPCs to be stepped at runtime with a single pass on consumer-grade hardware, with reasonable latency. To achieve this, we've fine-tuned open-source LLMs [3] to…
