I Spent a Week Making an AIs Video Game Idea

Sebastian Lague 2021-08-30 | I've recently been on a streak of unfinished projects, so I decided to focus one week on actually completing something -- anything! I thought it would be fun to make a small game, and so I asked an AI for some ideas...

Coding Adventure: Terraforming

Sebastian Lague 2021-05-29 | I got a bit tired of my simple heightmap-based planets and decided to experiment with generating them using the Marching Cubes algorithm instead, so that I could add a 'terraforming' ability for shaping the world with caves and tunnels and so on. I hope you enjoy!

Complex Behaviour from Simple Rules: 3 Simulations

Sebastian Lague 2021-04-27 | A small display of some of the surprisingly intricate patterns and behaviours that can arise from relatively simple rules. More information about each of the simulations below.

These simulations were made in Unity, and coded with C# and HLSL.
You can find the project files at the links below.
Reaction-Diffusion: github.com/SebLague/Reaction-Diffusion
Cellular Automata: github.com/SebLague/MN-Cellular-Automata
Slime mould: github.com/SebLague/Slime-Simulation

If you'd like to support my work, you can do so on Patreon: patreon.com/SebastianLague

---- 1. Reaction-Diffusion ----
This is a simulation of two chemicals (A and B). Both diffuse over time (A faster than B).
The simulation space is initially filled with A, and just a small region has some of chemical B. Over time, more A is gradually added (controlled by a parameter called feedRate), while B is gradually removed (controlled by the parameter removeRate). Finally, there's a reaction that takes place: when one particle of chemical A is in the presence of two particles of chemical B, it will be converted into B.

One could simulate the individual particles of both chemicals, but more common (and the approach I went with as well) is to just store a value for the concentrations of both chemicals at each pixel. The probability of an A particle coming into contact with two B particles can be determined by the equation: probablityOfReaction = concentrationA * concentrationB * concentrationB. Here is the tutorial I followed when creating my implementation: karlsims.com/rd.html

The colours in the simulation are mainly based on the concentrations of the two chemicals, but to spice things up I also added some colouring based on how fast the concentrations are changing at each point.

---- 2. Multiple Neighbourhood Cellular Automata ----
This is a technique developed by someone who goes by Slackermanz online (you can find many awesome examples under that name on Twitter).

In this simulation, the state of each pixel (called a cell) is initially randomized between 0 and 1. On every frame, the state of each cell is updated based on the states of all the cells inside various "neighbourhoods" around it. These neighboughhoods are ring-shaped, with each ring defined by a min and max radius, along with two min/max values called 'alive' and 'dead'. Once all the states inside a ring have been added up, the sum is compared to the ring's alive and dead ranges, and depending on which range the sum falls into, the cell's state increases or decreases by some small amount (if the sum is inside neither range, the state remains the same).

This already gives interesting results, but there are some more nuances that can be added. For example, instead of the rings directly affecting the cell's state, they can contribute to several 'potential' states, and whichever of these is most different from the cell's current state becomes the new state.

My implementation is based on Slackermanz code, which you can find here: github.com/Slackermanz/VulkanAutomata
Slackermanz also has a YouTube channel here: youtube.com/channel/UCmoNsNuM0M9VsIXfm2cHPiA

---- 3. Slime Mould Simulation ----
In this simulation we have a lot lot of particles, each of which leaves a trail behind itself as it moves. These trails diffuse and evaporate over time. Each particle also has three circular sensors arranged in an arc in front it. These are used to detect the intensity of the trail, and the particle turns towards whichever detects the highest intensity. Some randomness is added to the turning as well.

The idea for this comes from this paper: uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/980579
I also have a video exploring it in some more depth: youtu.be/X-iSQQgOd1A

Coding Adventure: Atmosphere

Sebastian Lague 2020-08-22 | The planets in my solar system project are looking a bit hostile and uninviting, so in this video I'll be attempting to add some cozy atmospheres around them.

Watch the previous solar system video: here: youtu.be/lctXaT9pxA0

Some notes:
• I made a little build where you can play with the atmosphere settings yourself, which you can find over here if you're interested: sebastian.itch.io/atmosphere-experiment

• A number of knowledgeable people have pointed out in the comments that reality is not nearly as simple as my little diagram around the 4 and a half minute mark, and that light does not literally wiggle up and down like a wave, so please note that the diagram is incorrect!

• This project was inspired by the game Outer Wilds, which I highly recommend playing!

Coding Adventure: Compute Shaders

Sebastian Lague 2019-03-14 | In this coding adventure I learn about compute shaders by creating a very simple raytracer. I then try use what I've learned to speed up my erosion simulation from the previous episode.

Coding Adventure: Hydraulic Erosion

Sebastian Lague 2019-02-28 | In this coding adventure I attempt to implement a simulation of hydraulic erosion to make a procedural terrain look more natural.

If you're enjoying these videos and would like to support me in creating more of them, I have a patreon page here: patreon.com/SebastianLague

Path Creator (free unity tool)

Sebastian Lague 2019-01-26 | This is a little tool I made to help with creating paths in Unity.
You can get it from the asset store: assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/b-zier-path-creator-136082
Or from github (updated more frequently): github.com/SebLague/Path-Creator

As a starting point, I used the path editor from my old tutorial series, which you can watch here: youtu.be/RF04Fi9OCPc

If you'd like to support me in creating more free stuff (tools, tutorials, etc.), you can do so here:

[Unity] Procedural Object Placement (E01: poisson disc sampling)

Sebastian Lague 2018-11-23 | In this video we look at implementing poisson disc sampling, an algorithm for generating tightly-packed points which are all some minimum distance from one another. This implementation is based on the paper here: cs.ubc.ca/~rbridson/docs/bridson-siggraph07-poissondisk.pdf

[Unity] Procedural Planets (E07: ocean depth)

Sebastian Lague 2018-10-31 | In this episode we make the oceans more interesting by shading them according to their depth.

[Unity] Procedural Planets (E06: simple biomes)

Sebastian Lague 2018-10-23 | In this episode we add simple colour biomes to the planet.

Get the project files for this episode:
http://github.com/SebLague/Procedural-Planets

Note:
Two issues have been pointed out which I'd like to address: (will add these fixes at end of next video)
1) changing resolution causes uv out of bounds error. This can be fixed by checking mesh.uv.Length == uv.Length before assigning the uvs in ConstructMesh method.
2) biome colours appearing in wrong places when zoomed out (on certain devices). To fix this, mipmaps need to be disabled on the planet texture. In the ColourGenerator, replace with:
texture = new Texture2D(textureResolution, settings.biomeColourSettings.biomes.Length, TextureFormat.RGBA32, false);

Neural Networks | E03: data and evaluation (unfinished series)

Sebastian Lague 2018-06-14 | In this episode we load our training data and evaluate how accurate the network is with random weights.

Neural Networks | E02: predictions (unfinished series)

Sebastian Lague 2018-06-04 | In this episode we look at how neural networks can be represented with matrices, and create a simple feedforward network in python.

Note: at 2:31 the second bias vector should only have two rows, not three.

(note: numpy.random.randn and numpy.random.standard_normal are functionally equivalent, the latter just takes a tuple for the shape parameter).
