About the Game

Mecha Runner is an action game built with one specific goal in mind, to test out the difference between a conventional FSM-built NPC and an RL-built NPC *. Which one offers a better experience for you, as a player? And so this game was made to find the answer to that question.

*FSM stands for Finite-State Machine and RL stands for Reinforcement Learning

Mechanism

Run past the security robots to the Green Floor! Step on ALL the Blue Floor to unlock the gate blocking your path to the goal! Some areas will have a flickering panel, a panel that appears and disappears continuously, that also hinders your path.

NB: You may skip a stage if you feel that it's too hard, but please make sure to pay attention to the NPC's behaviors before skipping it.

Controls

The control is simple, you use your mouse to click on the menu buttons, and W,A,S,D buttons on your keyboard to control your character in-game.
