OpenViva is an open-source continuation of Project Viva, originally made by Sir Hal. It is a VR and non-VR compatible game where you can interact with your very own AI anime character. The game features advanced AI simulation that can interact and respond to many of your actions in a dynamic way through inverse kinematics, complex behaviors, and currently over 200 animations. The character's mood is dynamic and responds to how you treat it, allowing you to play with it, feed it, or just be friends with it.
We want to get the ball rolling again. In order to do so, we made this new repositary to get ourselves organized and increase productivity. This should also help us avoid confusion. This repositary was made after the V0.3.0 update.
All the work up until v0.3.0 was courtesy of SolidStonee (main dev), Fun Maker, Foxify52, Trylk2481, moon2324 and other contributers. If you see a commit titled "Initialization", it was originally authored by SolidStonee. Otherwise, the original author of every commit can be found in it's description.
For the time being, all work on the Unreal Engine 5 port has been halted due to various reasons. We are continuing all work on the Unity version of the game.
We are a group of users dedicated to continuing Viva project as a free and open-source game under the name "OpenViva". Our goal is to polish 0.8.03 and replace any and all third-party paid assets with either free or custom assets. All assets and scripts are available to anyone who wants to download them or fork the project on our GitHub. If you have any questions or want to help us, you can join our community on Discord.

This repository is based on original Viva source code. Sir Hal shared it publicly and gave us permissions to do whatever we want with it. We decided to republish it under MIT licence. This repository does not include assets from Unity Asset Store that were present in original source code. We plan to find free alternatives for these assets or create our own.
