Players use a stylus to draw lines on the DS's touch screen, flipping tile from black to white (or vice versa) to clear puzzles. They must make room for falling tiles by clearing rows as they pile up on the bottom screen. Scoring is based on how the lines are cleared. Main neutral New Puzzle videogames — 2/4 ● Page 4 of 5 are can be used to flip disconnected groups of tiles in a single pass.

The game puts the player in the role of a marble, which is guided through a narrow winding course suspended in mid- air in five different environments. Using PhysX as its core physics engine, the marble can be "morphed" into different balls with unique physical properties. Each course contains obstacles and traps as well as physics-based puzzles (moving boxes, weighting ramps). Also, different balls react to the environment in different ways. Each level is timed and players are rewarded depending on how quickly they complete the level. Source : Wikipedia New Puzzle videogames — 2/4 ● Page 5 of 5 .

Semir Tatlidil, and Fernand Gobet University of Liverpool As a result of considerable potential scientific and societal implications, the possibility of enhancing cognitive ability by training has been one of the most influential topics of cognitive psychology in the last two decades. However, substantial research into the psychology of expertise and a recent series of meta-analytic reviews have suggested that various types of cognitive training (e.g., working memory training) benefit performance only in the trained tasks. The lack of skill generalization from one domain to different ones—that is, far transfer—has been documented in various fields of research such as working memory training, music, brain training, and chess. Video game training is another activity that has been claimed by many researchers to foster a broad range of cognitive abilities such as visual processing, attention, spatial ability, and cognitive control. We tested these claims with three random- effects meta-analytic models.

The resulting creation, Twinkling Stars Above, is a single-player platform PC game prototype. This paper describes the shared and distinct context of two contemporary art movements important to the creation of Twinkling Stars Above: Japan‘s Superflat and North America‘s Lowbrow. I propose that, given Superflat‘s influence on Japan‘s video game graphics, Lowbrow style could also be applied to video games.

  • G Boots: a Real-Time 3D Puzzle Video Game Graphics Senior Project
    G Boots A Real-Time 3D Puzzle Video Game Graphics Senior Project Zachary Glazer Project Advisor: Zoë Wood Spring 2015 Abstract G Boots is a real-time 3D puzzle video game. It uses OpenGL, using GLSL for shaders, in order to implement cross platform support of advanced rendering and shading techniques. A level editing system was implemented so that anyone can make or edit levels that can then be played in the game. At the end of two quarters of development by a single developer, one polished proof of concept level was created using the level editing system in order to show the feasibility of the project. Introduction The video game industry is a multi-billion dollar industry. It used to be that only large companies could afford to make video games due to the high cost of making and distributing the games. But now, with the ability to distribute games over the internet with services like Steam and graphics technologies becoming more widely known, it has become possible for individual developers to make and distribute games. G Boots was made with this in mind. It was made by one developer in only two quarters (6 months) while taking multiple other classes at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. The purpose of this project was to build a fun, real-time 3D puzzle video game for desktop machines. It was built using OpenGL 2.1, GLSL 120, GLFW 3.0.4, FreeType 2.5.5, Bullet3 2.83, and SOIL (Simple OpenGL Image Library). The main mechanic of the game is the player’s ability to control how gravity affects them and other object.

  • How Are Puzzle Games Designed? (Introduction)
    8 How are puzzle games designed? (Introduction) 16 Apr, 2011 in Development / Game Design / Puzzle Game Design tagged level design / puzzle game design / puzzle game hisotry / Herman by Herman Tulleken We asked five developers of interesting puzzle games how they did it: what they consider a good puzzle, what processes they follow, and how they zone in on fun and manage difficulty. We will publish these interviews in the upcoming weeks; this is just a quick introduction that sets the stage for the words of wisdom from the puzzle design experts. Who did we ask? (The links on the names link to the interviews.) Dave Hall (Q.U.B.E) Rob Jagnow (Cogs) Ted Lauterbach (suteF) Teddy Lee (My First Quantum Translocator) Guy Lima (Continuity) Later in this article, we explain what all these games have in common. You can also check out our comprehensive summary of the feedback we got from the game developers we interviewed: How Are Puzzle Games Designed (Conclusion). What is a puzzle? Definition time! Puzzlemaster Scott Kim says, A puzzle is fun, and has one right answer. Jesse Schell gives us a more specific definition: A puzzle is a game with a dominant strategy. A dominant strategy is … when choices are offered to a player, but one of them is clearly better than the rest … Are you thinking about how this applies to Tetris and Angry Birds? When we look closely any of the definitions in our field, we see that there are annoying exceptions. Nevertheless, dominant strategy is a useful concept. Even when there is more than one possibility, the designer had a single possibility in mind.

  • Learning the Arrow of Time for Problems In
    Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2020 LEARNING THE ARROW OF TIME FOR PROBLEMS IN REINFORCEMENT LEARNING Nasim Rahaman1;2;3 Steffen Wolf1 Anirudh Goyal3 Roman Remme1 Yoshua Bengio3;4;5 1Image Analysis and Learning Lab, Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat,¨ Heidelberg 2Max-Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Tubingen¨ 3Mila, Montreal´ 4CIFAR Senior Fellow 5Canada CIFAR AI Chair ABSTRACT We humans have an innate understanding of the asymmetric progression of time, which we use to efficiently and safely perceive and manipulate our environment. Drawing inspiration from that, we approach the problem of learning an arrow of time in a Markov (Decision) Process. We illustrate how a learned arrow of time can capture salient information about the environment, which in turn can be used to measure reachability, detect side-effects and to obtain an intrinsic reward signal. Finally, we propose a simple yet effective algorithm to parameterize the problem at hand and learn an arrow of time with a function approximator (here, a deep neural network). Our empirical results span a selection of discrete and continuous environments, and demonstrate for a class of stochastic processes that the learned arrow of time agrees reasonably well with a well known notion of an arrow of time due to Jordan, Kinderlehrer, and Otto (1998). 1 INTRODUCTION The asymmetric progression of time has a profound effect on how we, as agents, perceive, process and manipulate our environment. Given a sequence of observations of our familiar surroundings (e.g. as video frames), we possess the innate ability to predict whether the said observations are ordered correctly. We use this ability not just to perceive, but also to act: for instance, we know to be cautious about dropping a vase, guided by the intuition that the act of breaking a vase cannot be undone.
