Meet Wasabi. A machine-taught AI-agent that learned to walk and react to its surroundings on its own — completely transforming our view on game animation in the process.
Our AI-agent observes its own body and the world around it, and decides how to move its legs over the next few frames.
If hit by objects, it reacts and attempts to balance and recover after impact, while moving forward towards its goal.

Our AI team is working on a physically-based system that uses reinforcement learning to create animations. These spider-robot walking animations were created without any manual input. As the animation system is physics-based, the 100-ton robot gets a heavier, more lumbering gait compared with the more nimble small robot.
For our second photogrammetry trip, a few us went to the rugged and beautiful landscapes of Iceland. We took 150,000 photos for 1072 scanned assets so that we can continue to expand our game world. Here's some behind-the-scenes footage.
