**Play in fullscreen for the best experience**

**DAISY** is a retro simulation game set in the 1990s.

This game is inspired by the first song sung by a computer--Daisy Bell. It was sung by IBM704 in 1961. The BGM of this game is a 8-bit version of It.

### The Story

Deep within a small mountain village of the **Ludumland** nation—where the locals speak the unique **Ludumese** language—lives a passionate geek. Driven by a love for music and technology, he writes a vocal synthesis program and proudly names it **DAISY**.

Despite the sluggish computing power of 1990s hardware, painfully slow upload times, and limited resources, he refuses to give up. Using his trusty PC, he continuously composes and produces music, determined to bring joy and melodies to the people of Ludumland.

### Gameplay & Loop

Your journey revolves around managing your music production business:

1. **Accept Orders**: Take on music composition requests from clients.

2. **Work on the Computer**: Use the DAISY software to create and arrange the requested tracks.

3. **Submit & Earn**: Exit the computer interface to deliver your completed orders.

4. **Upgrade**: At the end of each week, you will receive your payout. Use your earnings to upgrade your PC hardware, improving performance and speed.

Press A or D to rotate the camera and the billboard with buttons to purchase upgrations are right behind you. Press ESC to return to the main menu. The clock on the wall shows time. This game has no ending.

I use my voice as Daisy's voice because i think it will make the game funny. Maybe you will find it humorous.

### Use of Generative AI

I used AI to finish the code, and write a script to generate the music.
