Call For Papers - CFP

We solicit submissions as either full papers about results from novel research (8 pages) or short papers describing works-in-progress (4 pages). All papers should adhere to ACM SIG formatting; more information and LaTeX templates are available here. Papers should be submitted through EasyChair.

Papers may be about variety of topics within procedural content generation, including but not limited to:

Offline or realtime procedural generation of levels, stories, quests, terrain, environments, and other game content

Techniques for procedural animation

Issues in the construction of mixed-mode systems with both human and procedurally generated content

Issues in combining multiple procedural content generation techniques for larger systems

Adaptive games using procedural content generation

Procedural generation of game rulesets (computer or tabletop)

Procedural content generation in non-digital games

Player and/or designer experience in procedural content generation

Procedural content generation during development (e.g. prototyping, playtesting, etc.)

Theoretical implications of procedural content generation

How to incorporate procedural generation meaningfully into game design

Lessons from historical examples of procedural content generation (including post-mortems)

Case studies of industrial application of procedural generation

Additionally, we intend to hold a joint session with the workshop on design patterns in games, which takes place the same day and venue. We therefore especially invite papers combining work on design patterns and games.

Important Dates

Full paper submission: March 8

Decision notification: March 29

Camera-ready deadline: April 5
