Fun game. Suggestion: make it slower to ascend steep slopes so that you have to be more selective in looking inside deep cliffs.
Found 184 minima. Either I am very good at finding global minima, or the other players are looking for maxima.
You can get bonuses though. The optimization algorithms do not get bonuses.
Oddly fun, rotation is a bit too fast for keyboard controls for me.
518. Not sure if I am just very good at this or everyone is bad…?
The other players are fake right?
I think the other players are other optimization algorithms
