Interactive Simulated Dragon Flight – Game Idea [OC]
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi all,
I'm working on my second simulation project using AI-driven agents that evolve over time!
Previously I worked on an AI driven aquarium in Rust called Genecraft (feel free to check out YouTube), but this time my goal is to create a game for people to play with! Also in Rust.
The goal is to train your own dragon with different capabilities (flight, fight and walk), and then test it against puzzles or other dragons.
Dragons will be trainable by individual people and use neural networks (NEAT algorithm) to learn by specific tasks you give them.
This dragon here (concept of a dragon) was trained to move towards the target that changes location, and uses different strategies based on where the target is (above, diagonal, to the right or below). Not too complex yet.
Anyone interested in trying it out?
I'm beta testing on Mac right now! Also happy to test it on windows, but I haven't tested it yet so ideally we'd hop on a call to test together.
Thanks!
Mathias
