Welcome to the 6th in a series of posts where I will test AI image generators and see how they handle making maze art. I will be asking 10 prompts and seeing what gets generated. My goal is to evaluate different AI image sites against each other to see how they perform. If you need to catch-up here is the series so far:
An exploration into Al Image Maze Generation
Making mazes with AI: Stable Diffusion
Making mazes with AI: Dream by Wombo
Making Maze Art with Nightcafe
Today I test out Nightcafe. You can access the website here. You get 5 free daily credits to create with. Each prompt, or generation will generate only 1 image. Without getting into all the details there are a lot of options and styles to explore. You should check it out. All prompts I use are the same for each site !
Prompt 1 - Make a medium difficulty maze of the Eiffel Tower in black and white with arrows at the start and finish
I have never seen this version of the Eiffel Tower before. It is a tower under the tower.
Prompt 2 - Draw a medium difficulty large maze of the Empire State Building with the start and goal embedded in the structure
No maze, but a cool rendering of NYC.
Prompt 3 - Draw a difficult maze of the White House pixel art style
When I look at this it feels like a map of a world in a Super Mario Bros game.
Prompt 4 - Draw a difficult maze that looks like a drawing of a famous building in sketch style
I feel like David Bowie is in this castle surrounded by cool Jim Henson puppets.
Prompt 5 - Draw a maze in the style of doyoumaze.com of a skyscraper in NYC
I like the maze drawn on the 3D maze walls. Very interesting. At first I missed it and thought it was texture.
Prompt 6 - Draw a maze in the style of Sean C Jackson of a scene from a large outdoor market
Cool. The image looks like it is of a park in a far, far away galaxy. Very interesting. Maybe a water maze, a maze plaza and a maze of buildings ?
Prompt 7 - Make a maze of a slice of an orange in color
Huh.
Huh.
Huh.
Prompt 8 - Make a maze integrated on top of a photograph of a king sitting on his throne looking cantankerous beside his beautiful queen
Fun, regal. Where is the queen ? And the king’s face.
Prompt 9 - Make a solvable maze that is very large and very difficult to solve because it is so complex
That would be fun to get lost in. Cool tower. Nice valley surrounded by mountains.
Prompt 10 - Make a 3d render of a red and blue glossy cube maze
I did 4 options again. Not a fan.
How did Nightcafe do ? A mixed bag from me. I like the fantasy aspect of some of the images generated. It does a very good job with fantasy.
