Infinity Generation vs worldGen

Infinity Generation's Infinity Engine supports runtime procedural generation of worlds, terrain, vegetation, planets, and other content for games and applications. Infinity Creator is a visual development application with a node graph and 3D scene viewer. Its noise tools are based on FastNoise2 and include Perlin, Simplex, Cellular, and other types. Generated scenes, models, and textures can be exported for use as assets.

The engine is described as compatible with Unity, Unreal, Godot, or custom game engines. Its C++ SDK and API support integration into existing projects, and developers can build custom procedural components for node graphs. Those components can call AI models to enhance dynamic content generation. The Free Alpha plan costs nothing and provides full software use during the Alpha period. Products using Infinity that make over $100,000 in annual gross revenue are subject to a 1% royalty. Creator lists Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) and requires a Vulkan 1.1-capable graphics card; macOS and Linux are described as coming soon. Free Alpha support is best-effort through community and email. Enterprise includes priority direct support, with price not listed.

worldGen is a free, open-source procedural generator for two-dimensional maps built from an integer seed. It creates continents, oceans, rivers, forests, swamps, beaches, cliffs, settlements, and roads. Terrain begins with multifractal noise and simulated raindrop erosion, while rain-shadow modeling affects climate across mountain ranges. Elevation, moisture, and temperature produce thirteen biomes. Reusing a seed generates the same world, making results repeatable. The interactive viewer supports panning, zooming, tile details, step-by-step generation visualization, and screenshot export. World state can be saved in TOML, and a world blob can be exported as a .bin file. Display and generation parameters are adjustable in config.toml, with additional settings in world/config.go. worldGen is a Go desktop application using Ebiten and requires Go 1.21 or later plus desktop OpenGL support. It runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows under the MIT license. The roadmap lists urban layouts, more plant and biome variety, waterfalls, cliffs, and artificial life.
