#00084 Game prototyper
	Mentor: Mark Riedl	School: Interactive Computing
	The Entertainment Intelligence lab is developing an AI system that can automatically generate role-playing game quests for computer games (e.g., single player RPG games such as Zelda) based on user preferences. The long-term goal is to develop a game in which one never runs out of interesting quests to play. We are looking for a student or team of students to develop a single-player RPG game simi...
