The Restaurant
There’s an interesting effort that I caught wind of from a coworker who went to MIT called The Restaurant Game Project. The reason I mention that he went there is that this is being run by someone at MIT, hence his wind catching and my resultant wind catching. Anyway, the project aims to algorithmically combine the gameplay experiences of many players to create a new game that will be submitted to the 2008 Independent Games Festival.
What’s more, everyone who plays will get Game Designer credit on the project. They’re running playtests heavily this weekend, so check it out (I recommend the DirectX version instead of OpenGL for performance), and you may even run into me! Some happy links for those of you who are interested: A post by the project’s creator, and another one, and the The Restaurant Game Project page.
