We introduce Mechanic Miner 2023, a co-creative game
design tool that suggests game design ideas by exploring
the source code of the game itself instead of relying on
pre-defined domain knowledge. Exploration is driven by an
genetic algorithm which generates, evaluates and evolves
simple two-state game mechanics that use code reflection
to manipulate a property of the game's source code during
gameplay. Evaluation is performed by an automated
game-playing agent driven by Go-Explore, a
state-of-the-art algorithm for automated game-playing. We
demonstrate how Mechanic Miner 2023 can generate a diverse
set of often novel solutions for a simple 2D puzzle
platformer within a timeframe that suits iterative
creative work.
