#AIIDE25 wrapped! Thanks to everyone who made this year’s @aiide.bsky.social such a success. We’ll be back soon with announcements for ’26’s location and call, plus the ‘25 recordings. But for now I’m going to turn off my brain for 48 hours.

New Paper: Pixie: Code-Level Mechanic Generation for Game Designers. How do you connect automatic game design to real games? Pixie is a mechanic generation system for Unity games, as an example framework for how to build AGD systems into real game platforms.

Procedural generation has been applied to many kinds of game content including levels, puzzles and narrative. Although PCG researchers have tackled the generation of rules and mechanics, these systems typically operate on bespoke codebases designed for mechanic invention tasks. In this pa-per we present Pixie, a system for generating and testing game mechanics that can be installed in any Unity project and configured using a simple annotation process to focus its scope and objectives. We describe the system’s design and operation, demonstrate its ability to generate mechanics for several open-source Unity games, and provide an initial discussion of developer perspectives on the content it generates and its usefulness as a design companion.

New Paper: Game Design is Generative Design. Designing a procedural generator and designing a game share a lot of skills, problems and philosophies, even if we think of them as distinct. I try to connect them here, for good!
