Online Games That Improve Your IQ
Very often our mental abilities become rusted as we get settled with our routine. Once a routine is formed, we will have to do very little thinking whether it is to do with personal life or with our professional life. Unfortunately this is what happens with most of us; our life becomes boring this can eventually lead to loss of interest in everything we do including our recreational activities. It has also been noticed the IQ level of such people drop over a period of time. (more)

Take a Break and Enjoy Exciting Online Games
We are in a fast paced world and all of us have a hectic schedule that makes it difficult for us to spare time for personal activities and entertainment. However, this is not a healthy lifestyle because if we do not give enough time for ourselves and take necessary breaks, we are likely to get burnt out faster than we should. To avoid such things from happening we should look around for options that will allow us to relax and unwind a bit. (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: On Goals: For Love or For Money
One interesting comment that I've been seeing a lot lately around various message boards and such where people talk about AI War is the comment that the game is a labor a love, and that I'm clearly not looking to get rich off of it. It's actually refreshing to see that sort of opinion, since I was all but accused of being pretty mercenary (and in one case "one step above a viagra ad") in the early days of trying to promote the game (a super, super, hard thing for a new indie developer with no track reco...

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Designing Emergent AI, Part 4: Asymetrical Goals
The first part of this article series was basically an introduction to our AI design, and the second part of this article series took a look at some of the LINQ code used in the game, as well as discussing danger levels and clarifying a few points from the first article. The third part of this series covered the limitations of this approach. The topic, this time, is the asymmetrical system used for things like resource management in AI War. This topic is a very challenging one for me to approach, be... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Designing Emergent AI, Part 2: Queries and Code
The first part of this article series has been a hit with a lot of people, yet criticized by others for being too introductory/broad. Fair enough, starting with this article I'm going to get a lot lower-level. If you're not a programmer or an AI enthusiast, you probably won't find much interest beyond this point. What Do You Mean, It Works Like A Database? First question that most people are asking is in what way my AI code can possibly be like a database. In a past article (Optimizing 30,000+ Shi... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Choosing a DirectX Platform In C#
Apparently my game AI War: Fleet Command is the first selling game to use the SlimDX development framework. Does it reflect poorly on me that I didn't know that until today, a month after my game was actually released? Well, that knowledge probably wouldn't have scared me off from using their library, anyway -- the proof is in the pudding, and I liked their pudding the best out of all the ones I tried. At the time I remember seeing a "projects that use SlimDX" page, and I even looked a few of those,... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: How to stream an ogg file using DirectSound in SlimDX.
With a nudge in the right direction from the SlimDX devs, I've finally got a working streaming solution for DirectSound in SlimDX. This will be a part of the 1.007 release of AI War, improving performance in the game, but I also wanted to share the code for this since it isn't out there anywhere else. First of all, let me note that this entire solution is really just an adaptation of an MDX Directsound streaming solution by Dr Gary. Secondly, it uses the wonderful Ogg Vorbis Decoder (a C# wrapper fo... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Designing Emergent AI, Part 1: An Introduction
A lot of people have been curious about how the AI in AI War: Fleet Command works, since we have been able to achieve so much more realistic strategic/tactical results compared to the AI in most RTS games. Part 1 of this series will give an overview of the design philosophy we used, and later parts will delve more deeply into specific sub-topics. Decision Trees: AI In Most RTS Games First, the way that AI systems in most games work is via giant decision trees (IF A, then C, IF B, then D, etc, etc).... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Games As Art... Or Not
"Can Games Be Art (tm)" is a big question that a lot of people have asked over the years. There are heated arguments on both sides, and I don't really intend to get into that here. The fact remains, a lot of people believe that some games are art, or at least art-like, and this article is addressed to those people. Passage, Braid, and Gravitation Since I count myself as one of those who believe that games can be art, for me this raises the question of should they be? Through a quite old post on th... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: The Case For Co-Op Games

Wednesday, July 29, 2009 7:08:03 PM GMT
Christopher M. Park - Blog: The Case For Co-Op Games
I am running an experiment. My company's first game, AI War: Fleet Command, is an RTS game that is entirely cooperative. Not that you can't play it single-player -- you can, and it's completely fun that way -- but there is no player-vs-player mode in a genre that is known for its pvp skirmishes. Was this a smart design decision? Time will tell. Why Co-Op? I don't have any focus group data, survey results, or market studies to back up my feeling that co-op is important. However, it seems like the... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Designing Games In A Vacuum, Part 2: Units, Walls, and Caps
Continuing the discussion from Part 1 of this series, we'll discuss some of the unique challenges of a space-based game environment as it relates to unit design for the game AI War: Fleet Command. These difficulties actually helped to bring out some of the more novel features of the game, so in the end I'm quite glad I made the choice to set the game in space (despite all the headaches during the early stages of design and implementation). Issues Continuing the list of issues from the first article:... (more)

Christopher M. Park - Blog: Designing Games In A Vacuum, Part 1: Terrain & Positionality
In developing the space-based RTS game AI War: Fleet Command, I encountered an unexpected design challenge: namely, I hadn't anticipated the issues that would be caused by setting the game in space. I've played space-based games like Homeworld (which I didn't care for) and Descent: Freespace (which I loved), among many others -- all sorts of Star Wars games, for instance. Most of the games that I had loved which were set in space all had a strong action element to them, usually involving piloting smal... (more)

Amver, Saving Lives at Sea Since 1958: Wired Magazine's Pirate Game; Good or Exploitation?
Amver received a Tweet from one of our followers about a new game Wired Magazine is promoting. It's called Cutthroat Capitalism and, according to the site, "You are a pirate commander staked with $50,000 from local tribal leaders and other investors. Your job is to guide your pirate crew through raids in and around the Gulf of Aden, attack and capture a ship, and successfully negotiate a ransom." (more)
