For those of you who have read my "It''s Alive" thread in the Game Design board, you probably have an idea of what this is about.
If not, I''ll explain it to you:
---
After watching "The 13th Floor" I came up with an idea. What if I created a fantasy RPG island, with a few small civilizations, and allowed it to run and develop even when I wasn''t actually participating. A good example would be "what if i killed the king?". After ridding the land of the tyrant, I would get off my PC and for a few days, live in reality again. Then I would return and see what happened. Would another civilization have risen up and tried to conquer the kingdom? Would the lords vie for power? Would the government collapse?
I was also informed that some guys at MIT actually did something similar, with a full 3D world (the computer crashed due to memory problems, but I''ve found possible ways around that
).

The Creekside Project is my own attempt at creating this world of AI. It may take years, but hey, AI is a cool subject...
Just to let you guys know. You can "flame" me now...

P.S. There''s a subproject known as "Oasis"... it''s an attempt to use the AI to make better games...
