I was playing around in p5.js and they had a text to speech module. I prefer monkey over p5 so I created one for us. Its HTML5 only (Its not a port all written from scratch)

that's really good, i get an american accented voice which sounds about 50/50 human robot, is it possible to change voices?

EDIT
after looking at github yes it lists the voices

You inspired me to try and add speech recognition to Monkey.
- I will tidy up the code and post it soon if it's of any use to anyone.

Only tested on Chrome with my Android 6 phone, seems to work ok, more work needed though.

I have an idea to work on a voice activated game, so many applications using the WebSpeechAPI..

I did a little work on the speech recognition side but started work on something else. As while the TTS one works on quite a few browsers the recognition isn't as widely supported
