\u201cAll of our levels have been randomly generated by an AI that we designed. These levels can range from being really easy, to almost impossible.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cOur biggest inspiration was from paying Mario 3 as children. We were pretty disappointed when we finally beat it, because we knew there wouldn\u2019t be any more fun levels to play. 20 years later, we got our revenge and we made a platformer that will give us an infinite number of levels to play.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cbasically, our level generator builds a level for us using a number of variables, and our AI checks to make sure that the level is possible. We\u2019ve been adding to that algorithm for 4 years, tweaking it and adding obstacles, hero types, and other variables to make the most fun and interesting levels that we can find.\u201d<\/p>\n
