Abstract

Application domains for Computational Creativity projects range from musical composition to recipe design, but despite all of these systems having computational methods in com- mon, we are aware of no projects to date that focus on pro- gram code as the created artefact. We present the Mechanic Miner tool for inventing new concepts for videogame inter- action which works by inspecting, modifying and executing code. We describe the system in detail and report on an eval- uation based on a large survey of people playing games using content it produced. We use this to raise issues regarding the assessment of code as a created artefact and to discuss future directions for Computational Creativity research.
