Title:On Graph Grammars and Games
View PDFAbstract:Graph grammars form an interesting area of research because of their versatility in modelling diverse situations with graphs as the structures which are to be manipulated. A new class of graph grammars, nc-eNCE Graph Grammars has been introduced recently with an aim of restricting the order of application of graph production rules, thereby generating different graph classes using the same set of rules. On the other hand 2D game design using an algorithmic approach known as procedural content generation has been of interest recently. In this paper we modify the structure of nc-eNCE graph grammars with the aim of generating directed graphs. We show that employing these graph grammars simplifies the design of 2D games. We have also developed an algorithm which makes use of these graph grammars for generating random game level layouts ensuring that the players will get a different gaming experience each time they play.
