The Choicer Voicer
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
This game is in early access. Understand that this game is a work in progress and has many unresolved bugs, and that purchasing it now means you accept that some or all of it will not work on your PC.
One of the most well-known and game-breaking bugs is that players can hear themselves with the live mic, and the waveform sampling works, but they cannot hear their recorded audio. This is an issue with Godot's AudioEffectRecord node and does not yet have a solution. I haven't diagnosed what causes someone's audio setup to succeed or fail with it.
Another known issue is that OBS scene switching can cause a crash. This appears to be an issue with Vulkan. Starting with Version 0.4.14, a "Compatibility" version is included, which does not use Vulkan, and may give more stability (though this has yet to be confirmed).
I strongly recommend downloading the "No Gamplay Demo" version and verifying that the game runs without lag, and that your microphone works in the Mic Check before you consider purchasing.
Please read these notes before deciding to purchase:
- This version 0.4 is the first public release. Version 0.5 will feature many updates as well as some changes to pack structure and files.
- It's not optimized for older and lower-end builds. Additionally, it can apparently be a resource-hog, especially at higher resolutions.
- Although Mac support is planned, creating a Mac-version has far more roadblocks compared to Linux and Windows.
Welcome to the Choicer Voicer! It's a mini gameshow where you do your best impressions of any audio clips you choose, and get graded on your performances. Includes many customization options in the form of user-created mod packs you can add to the game's local folder.
Enjoy a zany voice-based game show with a classic frutiger-aero inspired aesthetic, featuring music from AzureOtsu!
For individuals who only wish to create and test mod packs for The Choicer Voicer, the customization menu is also available for free, under the demo download.
There are many issues with the current build. When you discover a problem, please report it to "feedback.yeahmaybe@gmail.com" and be as specific as possible regarding specs and problems. In particular, I've been struggling to pinpoint the cause of the mic issues reported thus far.

no play button
cuz you havent bought it
How can I flirt with her?
Has anyone found a solution for the audio not playing back?
get better headphone
The issue is most likely due to an issue with the version of the Godot Engine being used. There's a bug of some kind where microphone recording and playback won't work if the output(?) device is surround sound. Unfortunately, it appears out of my control for the time being, but some people have had luck by changing their audio output device.

I made a pack of voice lines from the movie Kung Pow! Enter the Fist: https://gamebanana.com/mods/583437
ive never seen anyone talk about kung pow for a while. anyways, bird. birdie. birdie birdie birdie
guys, look!
does anyone know if there's a place where i can download other people's content packs? i've made a couple of my own and they work fine but if there was some sort of community space where people are sharing content packs for the game that would be very helpful
There are a bunch of packs on gamebanana
whats with the people in the comments and bashing on minors for asking if it becomes free cause they dont have credit cards to buy it
(goes to cashier in store with item) can i have this for free im a minor
all yall say is "get a job" and "just cause your a minor does not mean you get it for free", i just meant why do yall bash on them instead of answering.
some of yall dont understand they cant pay for it because they have no credit card or their parents wont allow them
This is such a fun game but it's brought down that I can only do local multiplayer. I think its worth while on having some type of way of having online multiplayer but I understand thats both hard to code and run :0(
peak cinema
claro que si
Cause he worked hard on it??
Why is there not a start button in the game, like i see in youtube videos, is there a mod i am missing?
Press play, select a voice pack, then you'll see the start button
When I do that there is no play button, I can only see how many audio/voices there are, nothing more, I can't even choose how many I want to do
Are you playing the full version?
No, I am playing the demo version, but there is no reason to buy it if its the same version
The demo has no gameplay, it's only to test your system compatibility. You won't see the play button
is there any discord server of the game?
guys, stop begging for a free copy, just buy the game, it's only $5 lmao
gotta love the 5 year olds in the comments begging for free copies and mobile ports
IM NOT EVEN 5 YEAR OLD IM 8 YEAR OLD (you must be older)
IM 8
Get a job
literally lmao, or like, wait for your birthday or christmas or something.
5 bucks for this is literally so worth it, this game fucking rocks and the customization is crazy.
Dilligaf
what does this mean
Nah bih im only 8 in brazil dawg
Bro are you the dev? Just port it for mobile im not forcing but youll be good to post it to the google play store ok i dont want it to be paid but whatever apks exists
i need this to be free not pai
I can't load the game, it only brings up "Search for app in the Store?" whenever I want to load. This doesn't happen on 4.11, yet it does on 4.13+, I need to know what's up
What can I do in the demo version of The Choicer Voicer? I want to play it with my friends and we can't buy it
The demo version is mainly for making sure your microphone works and for viewing/editing custom menus/judges/etc. in-game. You can't play the gameshow itself with only the demo.
Thanks for the information even if it's not positive but thanks anyway
does this have antipiracy measures
all games on itch.io are DRM-free, i.e. do not have antipiracy measures, as itch.io has no method for implementing DRM into games
that said, if you do pirate and enjoy the game, do consider buying the game regardless to support the developer. it's important, especially in the modern video game development environment
hey. using a blue yeti [although i use a logitech webcam mic for the funny] & a logitech pro x wireless headset for all my audio and for whatever mindboggling reason i get no playback? live mic playback works in-game and there is absolutely audio being recorded .. HOWEVER the playback for myself doesn't work at all.
is there any fix for that? it defeats the purpose of the game sadly :(
It's an issue I am well-aware of, and have no fix for yet because it's an issue with the engine I'm coding in. It's mentioned in the second paragraph of the game description above.
Some players reported that their microphones had a surround-sound setting of some sort, and disabling it fixed that, but unfortunately I do not know the details of what they did or used.
I'm an adult now.
First purchase after getting a credit card
my game has a bug
Well that's bizarre. I've never seen this kind of issue reported before. I'm curious what you're running it on, but that alone can't help me diagnose the issue.
i really like the game but the judges always rate me zero because i suck
maybe it's your mic settings. works fine for me but it took a lot of tweaking
Does anyone knows the best settings for mic crust ?
how do i get packs to add?
There's some packs in this comments section, some packs over on GameBanana, some pack creators have their own itch.io page (like AlizerinRed's Pokémon stuff), or people post packs on the unofficial Discord server created by HProtagVtuber.
After unzipping a content pack, you put the content in the corresponding folder (there are buttons in-game that will open the proper location for you).
how do you play this game with friends someone give me a tutorial please 😭😭😭
Download VB audio cable
set VB audio cable as the headphones in your discord settings
go to your windows mic settings and check "Listen to this device" so you can hear the mic at all times.
Then set the mic ingame mic to VB audio cable and screenshare the game to your friends
Fair warning, it'll be laggy on their end. But it works multiplayer
