Draft:AI Roguelite

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

AI Roguelite is a text-based role-playing video game developed and published by Max Loh.[1][2] Released on October 25, 2023, for Microsoft Windows via Steam, it is described as the "world's first text-based RPG where every location, NPC, enemy, item, crafting recipe, and game mechanic is 100% determined by artificial intelligence."[1]

Gameplay

[edit]

AI Roguelite features a combination of roguelite elements with extensive artificial intelligence-driven mechanics. The game features:

  • AI-generated entities: Locations, non-player characters (NPCs), enemies, and items are dynamically created by AI, allowing for exploration of a potentially infinite world.
  • AI-generated crafting: The game's base crafting system uses AI to determine the outcomes of combining different items, based on the names and descriptions of the ingredients.
  • AI-driven combat: Combat outcomes are determined by AI, which considers the names and descriptions of weapons and enemies, along with attribute roll checks. The AI generates a narrative for each combat encounter and determines its outcome.
  • AI-generated illustrations: Visual representations of entities are created using AI image generation technology.[1]

Development

[edit]

The game was developed by independent game developer Max Loh, who also composed its music[2][1].[3] It was designed to address perceived limitations in other AI-driven games, aiming to provide a more structured game-like experience.[1]

AI Implementation

[edit]

AI Roguelite extensively uses artificial intelligence for content generation and gameplay mechanics. The game offers multiple options for text and image generation:[1]

  • Text generation: Players can choose between free cloud-based AI models, paid cloud services, or locally hosted models requiring a GPU with sufficient VRAM.[1]
  • Image generation: The game supports local Stable Diffusion, Wombo Art, or Stable Horde for creating illustrations.

Release

[edit]

AI Roguelite was released on Steam on October 25, 2023.[1]

System Requirements

[edit]

The game requires a GPU for local AI model hosting and image generation. Alternatively, players can opt to use cloud-based AI services.[1]
