Adaptive Recommendation Systems

Systems that use data to recommend deck improvements, adapting to new cards and opponent behavior.

Reinforcement Learning

A method where an agent learns to make decisions by interacting with an environment and receiving rewards or penalties.

Game Economy Balancing

Methods for adjusting in-game resources and items to achieve desired effects and gameplay experiences.

Evolutionary Algorithms

Algorithms that use biological evolution as inspiration to find optimal solutions, particularly for complex problems.

Study Notes

Balancing Techniques for Roguelikes, Card Deckbuilding, and Autobattlers

  • Card Games and Deckbuilding:

    • Adaptive recommendation systems using logistic regression can optimize decks.
    • Systems adapt to new cards, card modifications, and changing opponent behaviors.
    • These systems can be applied to roguelike deckbuilding to improve deck optimization based on win rates and card usage.
  • Competitive Balancing (Autobattlers):

    • Reinforcement learning can balance levels by modifying game elements to ensure equal win rates.
    • The learning agent finds critical balance factors in game elements.
    • This approach can balance unit stats and abilities for similar win rates in autobattler games.
  • Game Economy Balancing (All Genres):

    • GEEvo framework balances game economies in two steps (generating and then balancing).
    • Objectives might include resource generation or damage over time.
    • This can balance currencies, item drops, and unit power levels in all three genres.
  • Data-Driven Gameplay Experience (All Genres):

    • Analyzing player data and experiences can identify and resolve gameplay issues.
    • Evaluation methodologies, tools, and visualizations can support UX assessment.
    • Useful for analyzing win rates of classes/decks, tracking card usage patterns, and tracking player progress to adjust difficulty.
