Old Tam's voice

voice/ is spoken by Qwen3-TTS (Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B by Alibaba's Qwen team, Apache-2.0, https://huggingface.co/Qwen; run through mlx-audio, MIT). His voice, a reedy old West Country farmer, was designed once from a written description by Qwen3-TTS VoiceDesign (tools/voice/old_tam/), and every line is spoken by cloning that recording. Each line's takes are checked against the script by Whisper (OpenAI, MIT; mlx-whisper). The recordings are made from our own text; rebuild them with tools/voice/make_voice.sh after changing any line. (Up to 0.6.1 he was Kokoro-82M by hexgrad, Apache-2.0.)

Cinderwild's own (CC0)

music/, ambience/ and sfx/synth/ are synthesised from scratch by tools/audio/make_audio.py (no samples): the five music tracks (calm, night, storm, danger, boss), the fire crackle, the creature voices, and the swings, eating, splashes, the fishing reel and bite, the bow, the hurt thump and death. Released under CC0 like the rest of this folder.
