The Infinite Armada is a small game/procedural generation demo I made over the weekend for the PROCJAM game jam. The optional theme was: Change.
I've made several ship generators before. One in Adobe Flash and one in Javascript for JS1k. Procedural Generation is a fascinating topic and there are so many cool ideas for things you can make.
The spaceships are generated from stacking together different sprites from a large collection of pre-drawn basic shapes. Various operations are performed on the ship such as painting a new material over it, creating sub-sections of the ship which are then repeatedly copied, randomly increasing the height of parts of the ship, and so on. At the end a bunch of accessories are attached to the ship.
