Excitement, joy, anger, rage, fear, sorrow – developing these emotional states in game characters used to be a cumbersome process. This task has been made significantly easier with the new middleware EKI One®, the user-friendly development software for online, computer and video games. That is because EKI One® gives computer characters both intelligent and emotional characteristics, and thereby brings them to life. Not only programmers, but also designers can easily incorporate artificial intelligence in game development.

EKI One^® Engine

C/C++ run-time library

The base technology is a software library that includes path-finding and movement algorithms, as well as cognitive, planning and decision-making systems.

Graphical user interface

This intuitive graphical user interface enables developers, programmers and script designers to apply complex artificial intelligence (AI) with ease. Game designers will also benefit from the broad palette of tools, particularly the sandbox component. Its WYSIWYG preview function entices programmers and designers to freely experiment and monitor behavioral patterns in real time.

EKI One^® Integration

In general, the integration of components into an existing software environment is one of the most important features of middleware. EKI One Integration contains existing interfaces for the easy integration of your cool product. The many interfaces for popular software kits and game engines, as well as the adaptable interface for your game title leads to much faster integration and implementation and to lower TCO.
