AI-Generated Imagery: A New Era for the `Readymade'
While the term `art' defies any concrete definition, this paper aims to examine how digital images produced by generative AI systems, such as Midjourney, have come to be so regularly referred to as such.
Why Oatmeal is Cheap: Kolmogorov Complexity and Procedural Generation
In doing so, we identify the limiting relationship between the knowledge encoded in a generator, the density of its output space, and the intricacy of the artifacts it produces.
'That Darned Sandstorm': A Study of Procedural Generation through Archaeological Storytelling
We provide some preliminary analysis of our intentional attempt to prompt player interpretation, and the unintentional effects of a glitch on the player experience of the game.
Trash to Treasure: Using text-to-image models to inform the design of physical artefacts
Text-to-image generative models have recently exploded in popularity and accessibility.
Optimists at Heart: Why Do We Research Game AI? (Extended Version)
In this paper we survey the motivations behind contemporary game AI research by analysing individual publications, the researchers themselves, and the institutions that influence them.
The Road Less Travelled: Trying And Failing To Generate Walking Simulators
Automated game design is a rapidly growing area of research, yet many aspects of game design lie largely unexamined still, as most systems focus on two-dimensional games with clear objectives and goal-oriented gameplay.
Tabletop Roleplaying Games as Procedural Content Generators
Tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) and procedural content generators can both be understood as systems of rules for producing content.
Generative Forensics: Procedural Generation and Information Games
Procedural generation is used across game design to achieve a wide variety of ends, and has led to the creation of several game subgenres by injecting variance, surprise or unpredictability into otherwise static designs.
Software Engineering For Automated Game Design
As we develop more assistive and automated game design systems, the question of how these systems should be integrated into game development workflows, and how much adaptation may be required, becomes increasingly important.
Exploring Novel Game Spaces with Fluidic Games
We present here a new type of mobile app -- fluidic games -- and illustrate our iterative approach to their design.
A Vision For Continuous Automated Game Design
ANGELINA is an automated game design system which has previously been built as a single software block which designs games from start to finish.
Off The Beaten Lane: AI Challenges In MOBAs Beyond Player Control
MOBAs represent a huge segment of online gaming and are growing as both an eSport and a casual genre.
PCG-Based Game Design Patterns
People enjoy encounters with generative software, but rarely are they encouraged to interact with, understand or engage with it.
