As I promised in this chapter I will dig deeper into the designing process around the creatures that will be walking on the procedural terrain. I found the following website, al.chemy.org , as a reference for concept artist which exactly belong to the topic above.  Designing the game world's creatures.

The conversation shifted from the nuances of game development to the larger, looming concept of the “metaverse.” As we navigate this evolving terrain, perhaps the future of education is not about replacing traditional methods but integrating games as a complementary tool.

This results in multi-threading, in a way that is transparent to the programmer: Basically, the concept of "frame time" (doing everything in less that 1/60 seconds), no longer exists with this approach. To make this easier, we came up with the concept of Servers. Remote objects are represented with RIDs.

This aligns with the concept that although Exiles prototypes are meant to be very good, they’re also usually flawed in some way, such as eventually breaking down, blowing up in your face, or something in between :P. so I’m all for changing something like this.

Rampant terrain destruction is awesome, by the way ;). Some concepts: More enemies could show up? Generating more paths would likely make Garrisons easier in some regards (unnecessary!), Download(Registry) is even more revealing! If available, that is.

TGGW is a linear dungeon, but backtracking to visit certain dungeon features is quite useful at times, so it also includes a convenient map list accompanied by the characters for notable features at that depth--NPCs, stairs, teleporters, mechanical valves, terrain that might contain something… (there is also a key elsewhere on the UI).

I want to know if there is some specific structural quality that is shared by Chess and Go and Poker and Bridge and Magic: the Gathering, some recognizable topological feature of their state space terrain. A key concept in addressing this question is the idea of the skill chain , as articulated in Characteristics of Games , by Elias et al.

A peer needs to communicate its network terrain, e.g. its public IP address, whether it’s behind a NAT, and its private IP address. Thus, after forward and reverse engineering a few samples, I was able to get some of my concepts clear. Telephone switchboard, 1975. Author: Joseph A. Adding GDNative Android API to core.

As a general concept teleportation technology exists in quite a few varieties throughout the world of Cogmind, though the player only has access to some of them. In fact I have two new concepts for teleportation tech, which is kinda funny because of how they evolved out of the same idea.

Naked simulated AI people ("peeps") arrive and flow across the terrain. In her excellent book Narrative As Virtual Reality , Marie-Laure Ryan outlines some common understandings of virtual: virtual as "digital": inspired by computer concepts like virtual memory.

Here my walking mechanic borrows some sensibility from Death Stranding, where terrain can seriously slow down the player's speed, so a skilled player should micro-optimize their route a little and avoid water / hills / obstacles. You can place this game in a tradition of walkie-talkie games like Firewatch or Wheels of Aurelia.
