This talk is from the 2016 Roguelike Celebration, re-uploaded in 2022.

Procedurally generating prose requires different considerations and techniques than many other types of procedural generation; language is difficult to simplify, but has huge potential for perceptual uniqueness.. Bruno Dias talks about the methods he used in Voyageur, his literary space exploration role-playing game set in a procedural galaxy.

Bruno Dias is currently a writer-designer at Failbetter Games. In the past he has worked on Neo Cab, Pathologic 2, Voyageur, and Where the Water Tastes Like Wine.
