This experiment aims to generate AI behaviors that conform to the way players actually choose to interact with other characters and the environment behaviors that are convincingly human because they capture the nuances of real human behavior and language.Career Mode: The game offers a career mode where you can start as a small restaurant owner and work your way up to becoming a renowned chef with multiple successful restaurants. Play testing by people outside of the development team typically comes too late to have a major impact on the final product.Convincing human social behavior is difficult to model with existing hand crafted AI systems.This project attempts to address two frustrations I experienced as a professional game developer: Play early, play often, and please spread the word! In order for this project to be at all successful, we will need to collect a lot of data - data from over 1,000 10,000 gameplay sessions. You are welcome encouraged to play multiple times. It is a two-player game that will automatically find partners for players once you join a server. The Restaurant Game takes about 10 minutes to play.
Quality will be determined computationally, based on a number of factors. Remaining credits will be divided into Game Designers and Assistant Game Designers, and within each category individuals will be ranked according to the quality of their performance(s). Designers will be ranked based on how well they play their assigned roles, and accomplish their objectives. It's never been easier to earn Game Designer credentials!Īll contributions are not equal, however. Everyone who plays The Restaurant Game will be credited as a Game Designer. In a few months, we will apply machine learning algorithms to data collected through the multiplayer Restaurant Game, and produce a new single-player game that we will enter into the 2008 Independent Games Festival.
The Restaurant Game is a research project at the MIT Media Lab that will algorithmically combine the gameplay experiences of thousands of players to create a new game.
