Procedural Generation in Godot: Learn to Generate Enjoyable Content for Your Games
Autor Christopher Pitten Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 ian 2023
In this book, you'll learn how to combine hand-crafted content with algorithms to create immersive and beautiful environments. You'll learn how to create a seeding system, so that you can replay great levels with your friends. We'll cover how to create good tilesets, how to use the tilemap editor effectively, and how to inject just the right amount of logic into an otherwise automated machine that is your own personal procedural content generation engine.
We will use 2D examples to demonstrate the concepts covered throughout the book. By the time you complete this book, you’ll have a good handle on how to add procedural generation to your games.
What You Will Learn
- Learn to set up the perfect content generation system
- Master the tools for randomization andrepeatability
- Understand how much content to craft versus how much to generate
Basic familiarity with the Godot engine and GDScript is essential. While all concepts are explained in the book, it can be overwhelming learning these techniques at the same time as learning the engine.
