AI Snakes
The AI Snakes competition is based on the well-known game of Snake, where one snake has to chase apples in order to grow. However, for this contest the game was rebuilt by a team from Innopolis University to include two agents. Our members learned a lot about implementing algorithms such as breadth-first search and minimax with alpha-beta pruning. Furthermore, a lot of creativity was used in order to make sure that the AdderBoaCobra won as many games as possible.

MIT Battlecode
Battlecode is MIT’s premier programming competition! It offers a unique challenge that combines game strategy, software engineering, and artificial intelligence.
This year’s version required us to find the optimal way to harvest soup, while protecting ourselves from the rising water. It incorporated resource management and balancing short- and long-term interests.
Out of 284 teams, the SnakeEyes scored 73rd place, while the Noodles reached 76th place. With the Noodles winning some matches against the SnakeEyes during the competition, it was a thrilling event!
