Deep Plays Snake

Deep learns to play Snake from scratch. It starts by behaving randomly, having no idea how to play the game. The challenge is to grow the snake to length 64 in a single game on a 12 x 12 board. Every game counts and nothing is scripted. A loss means starting over at length 3. THE RULES • Rules: 12x12 board. Reach length 64 once and the game is beaten; hit a wall, your own tail, or go 150 moves without eating and the next game starts over. • Between recorded games the agent practises off camera. The caption shows how much practice it has had so far. BY THE NUMBERS • 86 recorded games • 4 near misses at length 59, 55, 56, 56 • Game 85: length 64 · 1107 moves CHAPTERS 00:00:00 The challenge 00:01:00 Game 0 - untrained 00:02:00 Game 5 - a new best: length 11 00:03:00 Game 6 - a new best: length 25 00:08:00 Game 23 - a new best: length 35 00:24:00 Game 49 - a new best: length 46 00:45:00 Game 72 - a new best: length 59 01:00:00 Game 85 - length 64, the challenge falls Subscribe to see Deep take on more challenges.
