Perhaps you’re familiar with procedural level generation; well, in this post, it’s all about procedural mission generation. Hi all! My name is Lev Kobelev, and I’m a Game Designer at MY.GAMES. In this article, I’d like to share my experience of using classical ML and simple neural networks as I explain how and why we settled on procedural mission generation, and we’ll also take a deep dive into the implementation of the process in Zombie State.
