We are very excited to announce our new work: "Word2World: Generating Stories and Worlds through Large Language Models" [arxiv.org/abs/2405.06686]. All the thanks to my supervisors Dr. Steven James and Prof. @togelius. Word2World is an LLM-based text-to-env, game-design system.

Also you get more explainability out of it!

Very happy to work on this amazing project!

A game is more than the sum of its mechanics. But the game mechanics are really important! Can you make AI generate novel games by creating new mechanics, one at a time? Our new system, Mortar, generates complete games this way.

Venezuela has oil.

Greenland has rare Earth minerals.

Luckily Iceland has only volcanoes, glaciers, and very average cricketers.
