"Echoes of the Maze" is a 2D Maze survival game where the player is in a dark maze where he can only see so far. He has to reach the exit and proceed to the next level. However, there are enemies of various kinds, who would like to stop him from doing that. He has to trust a guiding voice as it tries to help him navigate the maze safely while the enemy taunts and confuses him in his guttural voice. The sound effects generated by elevenlabs, add to the feeling of dread and tension. This project has been built in Zed's AI Developement environment.

Auditorium is an AI-powered application that transforms any story—user-uploaded or AI-generated—into a fully immersive cinematic audio drama with character voices, background music, and dynamic sound effects. Reading long-form content can feel slow and passive, while traditional audiobooks often lack immersion and emotional depth. This project solves that by converting text into a rich, engaging episodic audio experience that feels closer to a movie for your ears—making storytelling more accessible, engaging, and shareable. I used Kiro’s spec-driven development approach to design and implement the entire workflow—from story parsing and scene structuring to audio generation pipelines. By defining clear specifications, I was able to leverage Kiro’s AI agent to systematically build and iterate on features. Also Kiro's rigorous testing ensures development with little to no bugs. For audio generation, I used multiple ElevenLabs APIs: - Text-to-Speech for expressive, multi-character voice generation - Sound Effects API to add contextual environmental sounds - Music generation to create cinematic background scores These were orchestrated together to automatically produce cohesive, scene-aware audio dramas, showcasing how combining structured development (Kiro) with advanced audio AI (ElevenLabs) can unlock new storytelling experiences.
