Super Mario as a String: Platformer Level Generation Via LSTMs
The procedural generation of video game levels has existed for at least 30 years, but only recently have machine learning approaches been used to generate levels without specifying the rules for generation. A number of these have looked at platformer levels as a sequence of characters and performed generation using Markov chains. In this paper we examine the use of Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural networks (LSTMs) for the purpose of generating levels trained from a corpus of Super Mario Brothers levels. We analyze a number of different data representations and how the generated levels fit into the space of human authored Super Mario Brothers levels.

Dungeon and Platformer Level Blending and Generation using Conditional VAEs
Variational autoencoders (VAEs) have been used in prior works for generating and blending levels from different games. To add controllability to these models, conditional VAEs (CVAEs) were recently shown capable of gener…
