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.

"inspired by" is kind of a weird way to say "lifted directly from". ;)

Another World's combat wasn't turn-based, though. I haven't played this yet, but it seems much more strategy-based, and probably completely different in feel and gameplay. I'm intrigued! I'd consider this an homage to a classic, but definitely not a clone.
