But also kind of&#8230;wow, awful? No, more like beautiful-awful. And it&#8217;s definitely making people stop and ask, &#8216;Is this what AI thinks a video game should be?'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the enigmatic, bewildering yet oddly intriguing world of artificial intelligence (AI) developed video games. We&#8217;re talking about something so oddly familiar, it feels like the uncanny valley of gaming, where robots meet recreation.<\/p>\n<p>Riding front and center on this strange digital wave is an exceptional piece of AI masterpiece, if we may call it so &#8211; a game. The first-ever full-fledged AI-developed video game. It&#8217;s what every hardcore gamer ever secretly fantasized and dreaded in the same breath. It&#8217;s weird. It&#8217;s fun. And it&#8217;s absolutely bizarre.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s just say, it&#8217;s like alien art and you are the unwitting museum visitor standing in front of the exhibit, wondering where on Earth (or not) did it come from.<\/p>\n<p>In this video game or should we say vivid-digital-browser-based-art-piece, you play &#8216;Struggling Blob&#8217;-blurgh. You hop around, and explode (or don&#8217;t). It&#8217;s really hard to put a finger on it but in a very unusual, twisted, digital Picasso way, it&#8217;s good, and if we dare say, even engrossing! Oh, and don&#8217;t forget that uncanny resemblance to SNES Mario. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s fun fact \u2013 this game wasn&#8217;t designed by a person. It wasn&#8217;t designed by a group of people. This game was &#8220;dreamed up&#8221; &#8211; yeah that&#8217;s right &#8211; by an AI. Spontaneously, this nameless AI took abstract concepts and somehow pieced together an entity that&#8217;s a venture into the unknown realms of human comprehension. <\/p>\n<p>The game also boasts a frenetic soundtrack. &#8216;A set of random noises&#8217; some might argue at the first listen, but slowly but surely, you realize the chaotic cacophony is, in fact, keeping you &#8216;in the zone&#8217;, or should we say &#8216;in the blob&#8217;.  <\/p>\n<p>So, are we ready to let AI takeover the gaming mantle? Well, it looks like our mechanical overlords are still fine-tuning their creative juice dispensers, and we still hold the upper joystick. But, with the advent of things like this little blob&#8217;s playground, who knows where we could end up? <\/p>\n<p>It is a wild, weird world out there pals, and it seems like AI is more than ready to take us for a fascinatingly befuddling ride.
