MarioGPT is a Python library and finetuned GPT2 model that generates playable Super Mario Bros levels from text prompts. It accompanies the NeurIPS 2023 paper on open-ended Text2Level generation and includes tools for sampling, rendering, playing, and validating levels.

Use cases

  • generate super mario levels from a text prompt
  • procedurally generate game levels with a language model
  • research controllable level generation with GPT2
  • play or validate AI-generated mario levels with an A* agent
  • fine-tune language models on game level data

When to choose

  • you want text-guided procedural level generation for 2D platformers
  • you need a reproducible research baseline for open-ended game content generation
  • you want a pip-installable library with pretrained Mario level models

When to avoid

  • you need level generation for games other than Super Mario Bros-style platformers
  • you need production-grade, polished level output without manual tuning
  • you need a general-purpose text-to-game generator
