    Reading through this made me realize that “procedurally generated” was the “AI” of my childhood. I remember seeing that phrase everywhere in game announcements and even education software. I’m surprised to see it again, because one could argue that a “procedurally generated” level is AI generated.

    But I suppose Steam just proved that a lot of PC gamers aren’t buying into the AI bubble, so perhaps they’re avoiding that phrasing on purpose?

      This game was available before the AI boom, so it makes sense they chose to call it procedurally generated.
