Attack on the clones: managing player perceptions of visual variety and believability in video game crowds [PDF]
, 2013 Crowds of non-player characters are increasingly common in contemporary video games. It is often the case that individual models are re-used, lowering visual variety in the crowd and potentially affecting realism and believability.

Procedural Attack! Procedural Generation for Populated Virtual Cities: A Survey
International Journal of Serious Games, 2017 On the one hand, creating rich virtual worlds "by hand" like in the game Grand Theft Auto V is hugely expensive and limited to large studios. On the other hand, procedural content generation (PCG) allows tiny teams to create huge worlds like Hello Games ...

A spatially-structured PCG method for content diversity in a Physics-based simulation game [PDF]
, 2016 This paper presents a spatially-structured evolutionary algorithm (EA) to procedurally generate game maps of di ferent levels of di ficulty to be solved, in Gravityvolve!, a physics-based simulation videogame that we have implemented and which is ...

Artificial folklore for simulated religions [PDF]
, 2017 In this paper we use grammar-directed procedural content generation (PCG) techniques to develop folklore; based on the seven basic story plots, for a simulated religion. A hierarchy of values for a simulated community was first generated.

Tile Pattern KL-Divergence for Analysing and Evolving Game Levels
, 2019 This paper provides a detailed investigation of using the Kullback-Leibler (KL) Divergence as a way to compare and analyse game-levels, and hence to use the measure as the objective function of an evolutionary algorithm to evolve new levels.
