Ludo.ai has been integrating AI into game development tools for three years. And now it is capitalizing on generative AI by creating a text-to-video generator tool for game developers.
Tom Pigott, CEO of Ludo.ai, said that the company has unveiled its beta test of its Video Generator tool. This tool empowers game developers to create gameplay videos in mere seconds, ushering in a new era of visualizing game concepts swiftly and seamlessly, he said.
The Video Generator takes text prompts and transforms them into engaging gameplay videos.
Pigott said, “At Ludo, we understand the increasing costs associated with game development, especially for indie developers. With our Video Generator, we’re simplifying the ideation and creation process, enabling developers to portray their ideas visually, offering a realistic glimpse of their games in action.”

Piggott said his team has been working on AI game tools for a while and he wasn’t surprised to see generative AI break out as an industry-changing tech in the past year.
“I feel like the past couple years, we were more just trying to educate people and tell people these tools are going to be transformative and impactful. But a lot of that work was taken care of with Open AI and ChatGPT and the other image generators,” Pigott said.
The Video Generator is envisioned as a dynamic tool inspiring creators to visualize their gaming visions vividly. It allows users to effortlessly produce video content from simple text prompts, offering invaluable insights into game scenes, narratives, and dynamics in minutes. This accelerated visualization minimizes the risk of lost development hours by expediting experimentation and prototyping. Right now, it produces three-second videos for developers.
Pigott said the Video Generator not only enhances productivity but also drives creativity, streamlining the translation of game concepts into reality. It stands as a game-changer, fostering a new level of efficiency for game developers worldwide, he said.
The company handles many of the pre-production challenges like creating prototypes and using AI for ideation. Ludo.ai now has a suite of tools for ideation, image generation and now video generation. The latest tool can generate video images of gameplay for a game that hasn’t been created yet. It give people an idea of what a game is going to look and play like when it’s at a more advanced stage, and that should help executives greenlight a game project more easily, Pigott said.

Every year, we turn to a panel of trusted analysts to ask them what they see coming down the road, and ask them to assess their predictions from the previous year.
The world of artificial intelligence keeps developing at an exponential rate. Just a few months ago, we saw multimodal large language models (LLM), that were capable of generating responses in voice as well as images. Now, we have AI models that can even generate videos from simple text prompts. Technically, there was only one such AI model accessible to the public by Runway, but now we have another. Pika Labs, the AI firm, has launched its AI video generator, Pika 1.0, and has opened its waitlist to the public.
With 2023 nearing its end, it is safe to say that artificial intelligence (AI) has been the buzzword of the year. Throughout the year, we've not only seen the rise of AI chatbots, but also the integration of AI into legacy applications such as Microsoft Office, and Adobe Photoshop. New AI tools have also surfaced, that make light work of tasks like image generation, and copywriting. One such AI-powered tool that aims to automate your social media content creation and AI marketing is Copy.ai. Know what is it and how it works.
