Sagebrush posted:i don't know. i'll give you that it's possible to procedurally generate a whole unique game...for certain values of "game." i'm not gonna search jstor but i bet there are research papers on automatically generating new rules for card games or 8x8 grid games (a la chess), etc. creating a technically functional variation on a theme -- sure, that's possible. but that doesn't mean the game it comes up with is fun. i'm thinking about the various attempts at getting a computer to write jokes: yeah, they follow the format, but there's clearly a lot more to entertainment than that. yeah i thought about it some more and there's a big difference between varying on a theme and coming up with something entirely novel. i guess procedural generation inherently only produces variations on an established theme, while you'd need something that can come up with entirely new starting points for variation. quite a bit more challenging!

Sweevo posted:it also changes display modes 2/3rds of the way down the screen so that the radar and status area can be drawn at a lower resolution but with more colours atari8 computers had a cool system for this, you constructed a "display list" that would get played back during each refresh of the screen and it could change video modes at any point in time. you could alternate slices of graphics and character modes if u wanted, there were no restrictions that I remember (this probably makes atari8 emulators super not fun to write) idk if the bbc micro had something similar but it might have (e: guess not according to later posts)
