 Games - Battle Droids


Design - Program - Build - Fight

Battle Droids is a game where players design, program and build a 100s of droids which battle it out in an arena.

This project is as much an experiment as it is a game based on the principles of emergent intelligence. The basic idea of the game is that 2 players both design, program and build a lots of droids.

Design:
For each game there will be a budget that both players have available to them. Different droid designs will allow for different weapons, armour etc. The better the design, the more each unit will cost.

Program:
The next stage is the programming. Each player can write several programs (using a simple, in-game programmibng language) to put in their various droid designs.

Build:
Then, depending on the budget and driod costs, each player can build a number of droids with their different programs (about 100 to 200 droids per each side).

Fight:
Then, all the droids are put in an arena and left to their programming to fight it out.
