Intelligent PC Games: Comparison of Neural Network Based AI against Pre-Scripted AI
Aakash Sehrawat, Gaurav Raj · 2018
Artificial Intelligence in PC games is a known concept and refers to designing the game such that even while playing games alone, there is a degree of intelligence in actions performed by the non-playable characters (NPCs) simulating human like behavior. It is often argued that video game AI is not truly intelligent and simply follows a set of instructions scripted by the developer. Hence, the objective is to study and compare traditional AI against a machine learned AI and make inferences based on the result. A game is developed in unity engine which is complex enough such that there is a balance of complexity in terms of difficulty to learn the game while also being simple enough to generate results as fast as possible.
