What you'll learn
In this 3ds Max tutorial, you'll get an opportunity to explore some of the questions and ideas that come up when creating content for procedural games, all the while creating some fun, low-resolution game assets. Procedural games are becoming more and more prominent in the games industry today. Procedural games have lots of advantages--no playthrough is exactly the same as the last, and environments can be designed completely by code.
