Muse
A generative model for exploring gameplay ideas.
The project
Muse is Microsoft's research into generative gameplay ideation, developed using data from Bleeding Edge in collaboration with Ninja Theory. It investigates how learned game behavior can support creative exploration.
Where AI comes in
The model learns from gameplay to generate visuals and controller actions. The research examines consistency, diversity, and persistence as properties needed for useful gameplay generation.
For game makers
A reference for AI-assisted ideation inside an existing game's design space. It is a research model and demonstration, with practical constraints that differ from a universal game-generation tool.
