Amorphous Fortress Online: Collaboratively Designing Open-Ended Multi-Agent AI and Game Environments

Abstract: This work introduces Amorphous Fortress Online -- a web-based platform where users can design petri-dish-like environments and games consisting of multi-agent AI characters. Users can play, create, and share artificial life and game environments made up of microscopic but transparent finite-state machine agents that interact with each other. The website features multiple interactive editors and accessible settings to view the multi-agent interactions directly from the browser. This system serves to provide a database of thematically diverse AI and game environments that use the emergent behaviors of simple AI agents.
