Description Anton Romanov 2007-09-26 11:56:53 UTC

NERO (which stands for Neuro-Evolving Robotic Operatives) is a new kind of machine learning game being developed at the Neural Networks Research Group, Department of Computer Sciences, University of Texas at Austin. The goals of the project are (1) to demonstrate the power of state-of-the-art machine learning technology, (2) to create an engaging game based on it, and (3) to provide a robust and challenging development and benchmarking domain for AI researchers.

This game is bundled as static linked binary only, so fastest way to play it is to unpack it into some directory and play.
This is second time i am filling this because first time i was actualy triing this game and it was leaking so much for some reason and it completly deadlocked my pc :(
Licence of this is some kind of freeware
