What is the Jev alien shooter?

A real-time alien shooter game where an AI agent continuously controls the player using Jev System 1, deciding where to move and when to shoot from the live game state instead of following hard-coded strategy.

What decisions does the AI make?

Exactly two, each a pick from a fixed set: movement is left, right or stay, and shooting is yes or no. Every decision is derived from the current game state rather than any generated text.

What does the movement decision consider?

Player position, distance from the screen borders, the position of every alien, the nearest alien, horizontal and vertical distance to the target, whether the player is aligned with it, and whether moving left or right helps reach it.

What does the shooting decision consider?

The current target, player and alien alignment, horizontal and vertical distances, whether firing can help kill the target, and whether other targets are available.

What is the AI's targeting loop?

Find the nearest alien, move toward it, align with it, shoot, kill it, then find the next nearest alien and repeat, per the README's diagram; the stated goal is to continuously target and kill aliens one by one.

What language and license does it use?

GitHub lists Python, and the repository was created and pushed on 2026-09-21 with 0 stars and 0 forks; no license is listed, and the GitHub description is only 'Created using system One'.

What does the captured README not show?

It ends mid-sentence early in the AI decisions section, so how Jev System 1 is actually invoked, the install and run steps, screenshots and any limitations are not visible in the digest.

AI Alien Shooter — Jev System 1

A real-time alien shooter whose player is driven by Jev System 1: instead of hard-coded movement and shooting logic, the AI reads the game state and makes deterministic picks between left, right or stay, and between firing or holding fire.
