AI Simulator is a series of mobile games, where the player solve puzzles (2048, maze, block puzzle) using various classical algorithms (DFS, A*, MCTS) as well as machine learning techniques (DQN, PPO). Instead of upgrading weapons or characters, players can upgrade their AI algorithms. Instead of tuning car models, players can tune hyperparameters for their machine learning models. Currently there are 3 games available to play on iOS and Android: AI Simulator: 2048, AI Simulator: Robot and AI Simulator: Block Puzzle. Search for "ai simulator block puzzle" for our latest game on App Store or Google Play Store. AI Simulator Tech Stack: The tech stack is mainly React Native, Expo and tensorflow.js. RL training and inference is built from scratch by myself first (first version of DQN), then using tensorflow.js (second version of DQN and PPO). I believe I'm the first person to make the PPO training work on mobile phones via tensorflow.js and React Native. I also helped to fix some bugs in in tensorflow.js library. My commits to tensorflow.js: https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs/commits?author=paradite
