My first experiment in procedural text generation! String replacement is easy; thinking up real-world patterns as templates is hard. Stray observation: having two sentence headlines made these a lot more fun (statement + commentary)?
My favorite part of this was importing idioms that occasionally appear in session titles. Turns out the human brain can make a metaphor out of almost anything!
My main lesson from building this British Foods generator: making procgen fun means it needs to have the ability to go completely off the rails sometimes. The funniest stuff is at the margins!
This is a WIP ongoing experiment! Generating drinks that are logical & interesting is a fun challenge, with lots of room to explore.
