The Procedural Generation Quality Dilemma

Procedural generation offers infinite replayability, but without rigorous verification, it risks generating impossible gaps, trapped corridors, or abrupt spikes that ruin the player experience.

Traditionally, human playtesting could only cover a tiny fraction of generated seeds. Modern automated QA agents solve this bottleneck completely.

Synthetic Playtesting at 100x Real-Time Speed

By spinning up headless WebGL instances in cloud workers, reinforcement learning bots run through thousands of level permutations in seconds. They test edge-case physics: skimming corners, triggering double-jump pads, and testing wall-cling angles.

If an agent encounters a softlock or an impossible vertical climb, the telemetry loop flags the seed parameters, prompting the procedural generator to widen the landing zone.

Heatmaps and Difficulty Rating Scores

Each automated run outputs a detailed 3D spatial heatmap showing player death frequency and completion times. This allows Gamoji to automatically assign accurate difficulty badges ("Casual", "Hard", "Nightmare") before any human plays.
