This is a short game made for as a bachelor thesis project on Charles University in Prague, under the game development group (gamedev.cuni.cz). The text of the thesis is included as a downloadable content.
In the game, side quests are generated using hand-made building blocks. There are 25 different blocks in the game from which the quests are generated, therefore it is possible (and very probable) you’ll encounter a block you know after some time.
The goal of the project was to prove that it’s possible to create a system that would generate a nontrivial number of quests from limited number of building blocks.
Gamer24h Editor's Take
Put under the Gamer24h team's microscope, Side Quest Generating System raises the bar considerably with both its storytelling and technical polish. Developer gyfis has done a remarkable job of drawing players into its world, earning our admiration with its attention to detail. Masterfully blending RPG mechanics with modern standards, the game's fluid gameplay makes hours fly by unnoticed. If you're looking for an absorbing world and satisfying mechanics that pull you right in, this game might be exactly what you've been searching for.
