Video Game Description Language (VGDL) & General Video Game Playing Framework (GVG-AI)

Hello,
This post is a presentation I did couple of weeks ago at Game Innovation Lab (GIL). It supposes to help people at the lab to understand VGDL and GVG-AI framework. I think that if we want VGDL to evolve, more people should know about it and use it. This evolution won’t happen without showing to people the power of GVG-AI Framework and VGDL. There is lots of development happening to improve the framework and language and making it more accessible to people (creating an Interactive Visual Editor with computer assist). The following paragraphs are my slides with a description for each slide.

Literature Review of PCG in Puzzle Games

Hello,
Long time since posting (the usual me) but This post will be short and long at same time.

“How is that?” That’s easy, the post itself will be very short (just few words) but it will have an attached document (around 16 pages) which is the third chapter in my Master’s Thesis. This chapter is the literature review chapter (the third biggest chapter in my thesis) which I think one of the most entertaining chapters (to read obviously not to write :D).

“Why do I think its entertaining?” That’s also easy to reply, I combined lots of previous work about level and rule generation (look at the references), and a friend of mine enjoyed reading it and thought its the most entertaining chapter.
