Procedural generation of dungeons’ maps and locked-door missions through an evolutionary algorithm validated with players
Highlights- Single Evolutionary Algorithm encoding able to create procedural dungeon and mission.
AbstractThe present research introduces an evolutionary algorithm able to procedurally generate dungeon maps containing locked door missions. The evolutionary algorithm evolves a tree structure, which encodes dungeons, aiming to generate ...
Toward proccedural decorative ornamentation in games
PCGames '10: Proceedings of the 2010 Workshop on Procedural Content Generation in GamesCastles, palaces, temples and cathedrals in the real world are densely decorated with ornamentation. Computer games, in contrast, usually have much less and appear Spartan in comparison. Game worlds, whether hand-made or procedural, require greater ...
Two-step constructive approaches for dungeon generation
FDG '19: Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on the Foundations of Digital GamesThis paper presents a two-step generative approach for creating dungeons in the rogue-like puzzle game MiniDungeons 2. Generation is split into two steps, initially producing the architectural layout of the level as its walls and floor tiles, and then ...
