Show HN: A competition for small neural networks that play strategy games

15yrs back I participated in "Google Ants AI Challenge 2011", an ai programming competition, hosted by the University of Waterloo, and I ranked #127 (#1 in my country). The competition gave me a huge learning oppurtunity where developers across the world came to a forum and discussed various techniques.

Now, I've built a similar platform to bring back the fun of building a small neural network that can play the game well. Neural Network optimization seems to be much more fun.

Plz share your feedback to improve the platform and add more games.

Cool idea!

It would help to delete all the text on the page, and write it without AI.

For example, "model and manifest bytes together pick the class; every version also plays on Open"

This looks fun. How small are the networks you're aiming for?
