Integrating AI tools for excellent game development software

Client
Charmed is an early stage, venture capital backed startup, that created original artificial intelligence-powered video game development tools, enabling users to create video games quicker than ever before. The company's platform offers browser-based, AI tools that can automatically create textured maps, paint colors, and surface minute details into three-dimensional objects along with an easy-to-use inbuilt quest generator.

One of the best AI tools for game development
Charmed AI is an end-to-end AI toolkit designed for simplifying the 3D art process in game development. It offers a range of AI-powered tools to help create detailed meshes, stunning materials, and lively animations. At its core, it revolves around streamlining the creation process of 3D models, materials, and environments, thereby considerably reducing the time and effort required. By integrating advanced AI technologies, Charmed AI enables game developers to rapidly prototype and iterate on ideas, finding the fun in the development process.
Innovative 3D game design
The Charmed.ai initial project goal was to have a tool that can render a 3D Object in a web application, let the user fill up a prompt and generate a texture using a Machine Learning algorithm based on the details the user filled. The project has since evolved, with ASSIST Software involved in developing and extending functionality.

What we worked on:
Geometry Generator
Creates 3D meshes and initial textures from input prompts or images, ensuring T-pose character meshes for auto-rigging.
3D Animator
Auto-rigs T-posed 3D character meshes and retargets animations from the motion library.
Texture Generator
Automatically generates high-quality UV-unwrapped textures for 3D game assets, reducing production time and cost.
Mixing core game functionality with emerging tech
Imagine designing a 3D object and instantly applying an AI-generated texture that brings it to life.Â
Â
To ensure smooth development and deployment, ASSIST implemented a monorepo architecture, allowing every update to be automatically applied across the system. A shared package was also introduced, bringing together all common components in one place—making development faster and more scalable.
Â
Managing projects has become just as effortless. A dedicated hub lets users oversee all their files in one place, ensuring everything stays organized. When an AI-generated texture is ready, it can be downloaded as a PNG and used in other design tools or game engines without hassle.
Â
On the front-end, 3D models come to life through the ThreeJS library. Users can rotate, zoom, and apply textures in real time, seeing exactly how their design will look before finalizing it.Â
Working quest and dungeon generators

We have also built the Quest Generator, a tool for generating quest outlines and dialogs that are consistent with the game world. It can be viewed as a worldbuilding tool that helps authors create characters, quests, and dialog for adventure games.Â
The Dungeon Generator, or the tilemapgen tool (An open source version), can be used to design individual tiles or full tilemaps tool for an isometric video game level. It is an exploration of AI mediated design. It uses assets to create isometric view tiles, but the tool should work for other tile geometries too.
Where can game developers use tools like Charmed?
The Charmed.AI ecosystem offers a wide range of solutions tailored for various industries, from gaming and animation to education and virtual simulations. 


Scenarios:
Rapid prototyping
Quickly generate 3D models and textures to test game ideas and iterate faster.
Content expansion
Create new game objects during initial development or expand existing content in an asset store.
Isometric dungeon crawler games
Utilize the Dungeon Generator to create isometric tilemaps in the style of popular games like Diablo or Red Alert.
Adventure game development
Generate characters, quests, and dialog using the Quest Generator for adventure games.
Seasonal events
Batch retheme assets for special occasions like holidays or promotions.
Community and educational support
Vibrant community, offering resources and support to facilitate learning and collaboration within the field of game development.Â

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is ASSIST Software's development process? Â
The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.
2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use? Â
ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.
3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app? Â
We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product. Â Â
- A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform) Â Â
- Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.  Â
- Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors). Â Â
- Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).
4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?
We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions.Â
Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects. Â
SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services.Â
5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software? Â
We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you. Â Â
- Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration. Â Â
- Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise. Â Â
- Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget. Â Â
Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.Â
