Generating Procedural Game Worlds with Wave Function Collapse

Wave Function Collapse (WFC) by @exutumno is a new algorithm that can generate procedural patterns from a sample image. It's especially exciting for game designers, letting us draw our ideas instead of hand coding them. We'll take a look at the kinds of output WFC can produce and the meaning of the algorithm's parameters. Then we'll walk through setting up WFC in javascript and the Unity game engine.

The traditional approach to this sort of output is to hand code algorithms that generate features, and combine them to alter your game map. For example you could sprinkle some trees at random coordinates, draw roads with a brownian motion, and add rooms with a Binary Space Partition. This is powerful but time consuming, and your original vision can someti

Introduction

This is a compiled collection of common Japanese SFXs (sound effects or onomatopoeia).

This collection uses mostly Romaji transliterations. Some SFXs can be used in combination with other SFXs; some of them, or combinations thereof, can be written separately for emphasis within the same panel (example: do-ki-, ドッキッ ), but can be considered part of the same action; some use repeated sub-elements or prolongation characters (ー) within them. All interjections can be written differently, usually to indicate particularly strong or repeated stimulation. For example, a cho in isolation is almost certainly a truncated version of chotto, where the speaker was distracted from finishing the word. A prolongation of a character, on the other hand, often implies lazy, harsh, or sloppy pronunciation, or possibly even a scream. Because of this, many SFXs can have multiple meanings, depending on the action drawn, as well as one's interpretation of that action.

How to use PlantUML with Markdown

PlantUML is a really awesome way to create diagrams by writing code instead of drawing and dragging visual elements. Markdown is a really nice documentation tool.

Here's how I combine the two, to create docs with embedded diagrams.

Step 0: Setup

Get the command-line PlantUML from the download page or your relevant package manager.
