We’ve been working on some cool character tech since late 2022. We started development about a month before the debut of chatGPT. The release of ChatGPT ushered in a wave of developers and startups focusing on chatbot NPCs. While this new capability was intriguing, we decided

I presented my first academic paper, "A Search-based Approach for Generating Angry Birds Levels," at the IEEE CIG conference (now IEEE Conference on Games) exactly 10 years ago!

Early in a technological adoption! I’m very curious and excited to see “what are the good use cases” for LLMs. I’m not sure we’ve truly cracked it with just autocompletion just yet. Surely there is more to unlock here :) just takes time

The folks at Amii did a great job of making me look smart in a conversation about my research work and outlook.

It's funny to watch the stream of Google research/Deepmind papers that say they want to do automated game generation with 0 citations to anything in the area's 30+ year history.

Hey are you doing something interesting around LLMs (including critiquing them!) and games? If so, please consider submitting to this special topic!

It’s fun work, but this is yet another Google paper that ignores the field of automated game design, including recent work in the area using Diffusion and/or Transformer models in very similar ways. It’s a disappointing trend!

This reminds me of some research @gillianmsmith, Alena Denisova, and I did around the importance of doodling as a way to understand GenAI at Schloss Dagstuhl. This is a great read!

NEW VIDEO! I chat once again with Jeff Orkin, the AI programmer on FEAR, about his career after the release of the game. How it led him to grad school, building a game where AI behaviour was crowdsourced, and his new start-up Bitpart.AI. Watch on YouTube: youtu.be/4ExkkUV7GOY

My first guest at Lingnan University!@jichenz Really looking forward to the talk and meet up!

I’ll be speaking about Box2D optimizations at the #GDC2025. I’ll be diving into the details of implementing fast continuous physics. This presentation has a new format I’ve developed recently. I’m really excited to share it! schedule.gdconf.com/session/optimi…
