PCG in my Games

Posted by | Categories Alone in the Park, Atomic+, CleanEm Up, DivCircle, Match A Number, Pace Maker FP, PCG

Hello everybody,
Long time with no posts or updates here. It seems like desert, sorry for that but I am sure people who follow me on twitter knows I was busy with my Master’s Thesis in Procedural Content Generation (PCG). I have always used PCG in my games as an excuse for being lazy and not designing levels (as I am not amazing level designer). In this post I will wrap up quickly some of the PCGs I used in my games. In the next post will talk about PCG in my Master’s Thesis.

Slide27
As most of people noticed lots of my arcade games used PCG especially top down shooters (Clean’Em Up and Alone in the Park). All these games don’t have levels designed in advance, but instead they have enemy numbers and types to be generated. The system afterwards choose the most suitable location (away from the player position) and insert them. Pace Maker was a little different where the system generates the types and numbers based on the level of difficulty so as difficulty increase the number of enemies and variety of types increased.

Game Development BootCamp Talk

Posted by | Categories Atomic+, CleanEm Up, Match A Number, Presentation

Hello Everyone,
Sorry for being away still trying to get out of depression but at same time I made a talk for an event called Game Development BootCamp in Egypt in Alexandria (a city on the north coast) I went there with my game developers / designers friends and I enjoyed it because it was really good time to get away from everything and try to get out of depression it helped somehow but I keep going back and back to depression but don’t worry I am getting out from that.

Here a recorded video about the talk (The talk is in Arabic so I will post the slides with English explanation to everything in here as I done with A Maze talk)

Long time and all I got is Repeat

Posted by | Categories Atomic+, Colors & Numbers, Repeat

Hello All,
I apologize for long time not writing here and not writing anything about Atomic+ or what happens with sales and all these things but really forgive me. I was straggling and still straggling from some problems (life, mental, work, family, country …etc) So I was in a deep shitty place in my mind and I am trying to get out of it.

That’s why I made Repeat to help me get out from what happening to me, You should believe people when they say that games have healing power (Yes it is) and especially making them. I know the prototype game Repeat is not amazing as everyone expect from the Creator of Atomic+ (btw that idea what made me down more that I always been afraid to let people down specially after my last game Colors & Numbers which was very badly designed) but I think it was worth experimenting and worth to be tried. Repeat is inspired by Blek, Impasse and Snazzle, I don’t want to talk about it a lot I just want you to go and try it better.

Atomic+ is Out

Posted by | Categories Atomic+, OST

Hey All,
The post name is very clear 😀 Atomic+ is finally out today 🙂 I guess lots of people now are crashing their fingers with their screens to evade bullets and getting squares.

My musician Agent Whiskers got 90 score in the game using Full control scheme which is very highscore and he bets he will be the first to get 100 before anyone else can.

The game is on App Store for 0.99$ till the end of the year then it will be back to its original price 1.99$ afterwards. Also if you loved the game music you can buy it from Bandcamp for 3$

Atomic+ News

Posted by | Categories Atomic+, Crappy Dreams, IGF, Match A Number

Hey everybody,
Hope there is still some people following me here on the blog as it have been long time since I wrote anything new but don’t worry I was away this time working on my new games. If anyone follows me on twitter (@amidos2006) he would probably know the running projects and he probably know that I have been working on Atomic+ for more than a month nearly two months.

I was aiming this year to submit Crappy Dreams as usual to IGF 2014 but I didn’t work on it as I wanted finish Atomic+ very fast and show the beta version to the public because I was going to show it at A Maze Festival at Johannesburg and also at Gamer’s Day in Riyadh.
