Just in time for pride

UPDATE (July 1, 2023) - v0.11.5 is now available, with a logic fix in the Desert Ruins basement. Download link updated below!

This is a bugfix release, squashing a couple annoying bugs resulting in seeds occasionally failing to re-generate, and a particular combination of settings that could rarely lead to an immediately bricked seed due to the Axe locking itself.

Despite this being a very minor release, it's the first release since I joined cohost, so a little more about the randomizer's feature set:

This is a randomizer for Wario Land 3! It shuffles the contents of all 100 treasure chests, allowing for a new playthrough every time. If you want, you can also randomize the world map, key locations, game music, and other things! No matter what, everything will be shuffled in a way that allows you to complete the game.

What is the purpose of automation? I've been working with and researching generative algorithms for almost fifteen years now, and I've used all sorts of techniques in all sorts of ways. I've also gotten to watch as procedural generation changed from a relatively rarely-seen technique to a core part of several game genres and a major point of research and development for some of the biggest game developers in the world. Yesterday, Unity announced several new tools powered by some of the latest trends in AI - you'll have heard lots of different names for them, but let's call them 'generative AI'. I'm skeptical about a lot of it, and I shared some of the reasons why on Twitter. I wanted to expand on one point in particular in this blog post: what is automation actually for?
