Profile

I've been building Augur as a solo side project for the last month or so. It started as an experiment to see if I could make "boss fight" that learned from all comers, but still felt genuinely fair to play. The original plan was to build a simplistic jrpg style turned-based encounter engine, but I quickly pivoted to a text based interface, recalling my early experiences with Adventure and Zork. That naturally led to incorporating an LLM, and it turned into something I find pretty fun, so I'm sharing it.The core idea is simple: you play a text-based boss encounter against a character called the Architect, set in a strange library. You can fight, sneak, persuade, or try something I haven't tho
