Ship an AI-Powered UE5 Game Without Rebuilding From Zero.
Live2D avatars, LLM-driven NPCs, voice, and 9 environment themes — the AstralRC Starter Kit drops straight into your UE5 project. We consult, we install, or you take the whole kit.
Adding AI to a UE5 project is a 2-3 month rabbit hole.
Live2D rigging. LLM API plumbing. Voice I/O. Environment audio. NPC dialogue state machines. You can glue it together — or you can ship the game.
Months of integration
Wiring Live2D → LLM → TTS → UE5 actor pipeline eats weeks before a single feature ships.
Costly wrong turns
Every plugin conflict, every engine-version mismatch, every API change sets you back another sprint.
Expertise you don't have
Game devs aren't LLM engineers. AI engineers aren't Unreal experts. The overlap is rare.
The AstralRC Starter Kit gives you a working AI game foundation — already migrated to UE 5.5.4, already building clean.
A complete AI game foundation.
Every module is production-ready, cleanly separated, and plug-and-play into your existing project.
Live2D Avatar System
Full Cubism integration. Bring your own character art — we handle the rigging, lip-sync, and emotion mapping.
LLM NPC Dialogue
Pluggable dialogue runtime. Connect OpenAI, Anthropic, local models, or your own backend with one config change.
Voice I/O Pipeline
Whisper STT + TTS. Real-time mic input, low-latency response, drop-in replacement for traditional dialogue trees.
9 Environment Themes
Space, Obscure, Psychedelic, Dark, Metal, Investigator, Other Dimension — full HDRI + audio cues per theme.
Main Menu + Player Flow
Drop-in Main Menu blueprint, game mode, and player controller. Skip the boilerplate and start in the interesting part.
Clean Migration Path
Battle-tested upgrade from UE 4.25 → 5.5.4. No deprecated calls, no plugin conflicts, no compile hell.
Three ways to ship.
Pick the level of help you need. No long-term contracts. No platform fees.
