asteroids
The 1979 Atari arcade space shooter game Asteroids, recreated in Javascript.
Additionally, there is a neural network built without using any frameworks that can be trained to play.
Overview
In order to manually play, run asteroids.html in your browser and make sure to turn the AUTOMATION_ON constant to false.
Use the left and right arrow keys to rotate the ship. Use the up arrow key to move forward, and hit spacebar to shoot.
To train a neural network to play, turn AUTOMATION_ON to true. You can change NUM_SAMPLES to vary training iterations and OUTPUT_THRESHHOLD to change the necessary accuracy in order for the spaceship to commit to a turn.
