Reinforcefield (for Playdate) by damos games

AI comes to the playdate!!  Are you smarter than a machine?
Reinforcefield is a turn based, AI, laser gun duelling game influenced by the gun play of Eric Chahi’s Another World.
The opponent AI uses Machine Learning (specifically QLearning) to improve every game.
Train the AI by playing against it or set it to auto train itself to higher levels quickly.
See which AI level you can outsmart.
