Are you wondering if the current generation of AI Co-Development tools are mature enough to be used in your Video Game development projects? This session will cover some of the more popular AI Co-Development tools for GoDot, Phaser, Unity, and Unreal Engine. Some of these tools are ready for prime time while others are still in beta or need more time to mature. Philip Conrod and Matt Colon are currently using these tools in their Game Development pipeline. This session is for managers, designers, artists and developers.
Philip will be showcasing our latest video game Exodus Vigil in the CGDC Showcase booth in the Realm Makers Expo Hall on July 18-20. He will also be highlighting the associated step-by-step video game development textbook tutorial, Introduction to Unity 3D with C#: The Exodus Adventure, which was used to build the original prototype of the Exodus Vigil game. Phil will also be showcasing Hard Lander (a CGDC fan favorite rocket physics game) and highlighting our latest Unity 6 Edition of our Real-World STEM Tutorial & Software which includes the Unity 6 Source Code of the Hard Lander game.
