Mesmerizing - could be its own digital art showcase XD Love what you've done here, friend. Looking forward to what you do next. <3

Really cool! But right as it was nearing 4,000, it seems to have corrupted itself and no longer got any scores above 0. Not sure if that's a code bug or a neural net issue.

Cool project!

I noticed that if you go from training to watch and then back, the training temporarily drop significantly in score.

A previous similar idea running as a Ratatui based TUI: https://github.com/bones-ai/rust-snake-ai-ratatui

did a pretty similar thing last month for the text rendering library last month.

trained and made a viz for the model and then made it displace text.

should probably do a proper write-up:https://x.com/i/status/2038367016969724259

I noticed snake gets penalized for not getting to the apple early, is that what you really want? Snake is about how long it gets not about the balance between length and wall clock time

Poorly programmed, it doesn't learn from its mistakes, the games get stuck in a loop because the snake doesn't capture a piece but the piece remains and there's a gap, constantly moving the snake along the same path with negative scores in an infinite loop leaving an unaltered yin and yang ;) there's a repetitive pattern in these infinite games between the position of the gap and the piece

My average eventually made it to about 3900, and then stagnated between 3600-3900. I'm curious if this is universal behavior or not. I'm up to about 5k steps.

That's cool, i did exactly the same few years ago
