About Speaking Simulator


Do you have a vague understanding of human interaction? Well this is the game for you!



Your mission: Infiltrate a world of extremely trusting humans, speak to them, and convince them that you’re definitely not a robot.

You will learn to move your mouth in certain ways to make words come out. Somehow, speech happens just by waving a wet tongue around and stretching your lips.

Nobody knows how this works but in this simulation you will have to learn quickly if you don’t want your face to explode.

Unfortunately, there were some corners cut on your safety features. If you make errors your systems will overload and your AI will be forced to relieve pressure by triggering one of the various array of facial explosions and mechanical glitches.

As you upgrade your social mechanics, you will have to learn to smile when something is happy and frown when something is sad. There is also the eye contact upgrade, as humans find it suspicious if you look unceasingly into their eyes with a wide smile as they tell you a tragic story.

GAME FEATURES

  • Make your way through 10 different social scenarios such as job interviews, eulogies, doctor examinations, and romantic conversations.
  • Upgrade yourself with the latest in social technology. Learn to smile, raise an eyebrow, and awkwardly glance away from eye contact, just like in real life!
  • The most realistic gibberish system ever seen in gaming. Play within a dynamic audio system that reacts to tongue and mouth movement.
  • Replayability: With a huge array of different failure facial explosions, every conversation is hilarious and unique.
  • Fantastically beautiful tongue graphics. Finely tuned spit particles.
  • Adaptive soundtrack which changes as you enter different parts of your conversation.
  • Highly polished dialogue and delightful narrative.
  • Take part in the human self expression known as dance.
  • Customize your robot to make it feel like your own.
  • A surprisingly good portrayal of social anxiety.

✦ AI summary

Players enjoy this quirky game for its fun concept and reasonable price, with smooth controller gameplay and well-paced difficulty that doesn't overstay its welcome. However, recurring complaints center on the tongue mechanic being buggy and unreliable, later levels becoming frustratingly difficult (especially on controller), and poor achievement design that makes 100% completion feel impossible rather than rewarding. The experience significantly diminishes for those who skip dialogue or struggle with the game's more punishing later stages.

Cat got my tuuuuuh Really: This game doesn't feel rewarding especially to those who skip dialogue (no offence) all you get is xp after missions

Very funny idea, very quickly becomes the opposite of fun to play. Getting 100% with all "upgrades" is essentially impossible on even the easiest levels, and the last levels are extremely difficult to begin with (even without all modifiers) so, completely garbage achievement design. The tongue cannot really be kept in a safe position to avoid pressing the red buttons, so it's basically completely random whether you get through it or not, and with all modifiers it becomes so busy that you can't even begin to enjoy a second of it. Just pure frustration and anxiety. Early on, it's easy to blast through with controller, but the later levels are completely impossible with controller (to me anyway) so you need to switch to KB+M to have a chance, and the game is also significantly less fun on keyboard and mouse, and, it was already not fun anymore even before that, so..... yeah.

Yeah so i had a lot of fun with this game, but unfortunatelly the whole tongue mechanic thing needs to be reworked, the tongue glitches all over the mouth. Until that is done, i can't wholeheartedly recomend this game :c sorry devs

While this is hardly the best game on Steam, it's reasonably priced for how much fun I had. The graphics are mediocre, but it runs well. The story is nothing to write home about, but is told well in the game. The mechanics are the perfect mix of easy to understand and just difficult enough to provide a challenge, especially when stacked on top of each other. I recommend playing with a controller if at all possible, as it feels much smoother than the standard mouse and keyboard controls. One note I do have is that the percentage you're shown at the end of a level does not seem to be accurate; it is always 100% even if you did not get a 100% score on the level. If you go into the level select and hover over the level, it'll show you what you actually scored. You also have to play with all unlocked upgrades on to actually improve that score, as far as I can tell.

What a silly game to bring you some chuckles and it doesn't overstay it's welcome. You can watch my livestream of the game over on my [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcMMbXindAo&list=PL0q93Rkkmx_suE0WOA-JpXrVTubS3TBRU&pp=gAQBiAQB]YouTube Channel[/url]!
