Spoont also promised crossovers between Pixel Playground and other Misfits creators. We will do this by leveraging premium game design acumen, our unique access to Roblox influencers and creatives, and bring the charm and feel of Nintendo and LEGO games to ship experiences that stand above others in the marketplace,” said Ben Spoont, Misfits’ founder and CEO, in an interview with GamesBeat. “Our mission is to bring fun, high quality, innovative experiences that appeal to everyone on the Roblox platform. The team has previously worked on TubNet, a cross-platform Minecraft server. Chris Casanova - Misfit’s head of games studio - and a team of developers will bring Jacobs and Kreekcraft’s vision to Roblox fans. Roblox's announcement for the tools offers a few examples, generating realistic textures for a "bright red rock canyon" and "stained glass," or producing several lines of functional code that will that make certain objects change color and self-destruct after a player interacts with them.īoth of those functions might sound familiar to you if you've experimented AI chatbots - GPT-3 can already create functional code snippets based on prompts.Part of Misfits’ support for Pixel Playground will be its development team.

Now, it's taking its first steps toward allowing "every user on Roblox to be a creator" by launching its first AI tools: Code Assist and Material Generator, both in beta.Īlthough neither tool is anywhere close to generating a playable Roblox experience from a text description, Head of Roblox Studio Stef Corazza told an audience at GDC 2023 that they can "help automate basic coding tasks so you can focus on creative work." For now, that means being able to generate useful code snippets and object textures based on short prompts.

Last month, Roblox outlined its vision for AI-assisted content creation, imagining a future where Generative AI could help users create code, 3D models and more with little more than text prompts.
