Nobody mentions an existential crisis when one takes up Computer Science. Well I guess AI did have that on the can.. but then tho

Procedural Dungeon Generation

Alright~ After much work we have finally completed our dungeon generation algorithm. First, we generate the rooms, separate them using a separation steering algorithm.

Second, we generate a graph that represents connections between the various rooms

Third, we perform what is known as Delaunay Triangulation, in which we evaluate pairs of triangles and swap their shared edge if it fails a test boiled down to a simple matrix determinant evaluation Fourth, we construct a Graph of connectivity from the Delaunay triangulation

Fifth, we perform an A* pathfinding algorithm to connect points on the delauney triangulation through the neighborhood graph

Finally, if we didn't traverse through a room, we can remove it to simplify the dungeon into something a little less dense

There are some extra things we can do here and there, and bugs and edge cases to iron out here and there, but for now, we have a pretty neat little dungeon generator. The next step is to actually procedurally generate the rooms and then use the connectivity graphs to implement game logic and whatnot, but that we will save for another time.

In 1944 a kitten named George (short for General Electric) was saved from drowning by a U.S. Navy crew member. George was then photographed and given a liberty card and detailed health record. Source.

Shaper Shaped

by Harindranath Chattopadhyaya

In days gone by I used to be A potter who would feel His fingers mould the yielding clay To patterns on his wheel; But now, through wisdom lately won, That pride has gone away, I have ceased to be the potter And have learned to be the clay.

In other days I used to be A poet through whose pen Innumerable songs would come To win the hearts of men; But now, through new-got knowledge Which I hadn’t had so long, I have ceased to be the poet And have learned to be the song.

I was a fashioner of swords, In days that now are gone, Which on a hundred battlefields Glittered and gleamed and shone; But now I am brimming with The silence of the Lord, I have ceased to be sword-maker And have learned to be the sword.

In by-gone days I used to be A dreamer who would hurl On every side an insolence Of emerald and pearl. But now I am kneeling At the feet of the Supreme I have ceased to be the dreamer And have learned to be the dream.
