What it does

MoonQuest is a single-player procedurally-generated adventure game set on a strange nocturnal world orbitted by many moons. The gameplay is a mix of roguelike and minecraftian genres and sits somewhere between Terraria and Spelunky. The main aim of the game is to search a procedurally-generated world for moonstones.

    I built an autopilot for the lunar lander game2023 · szhu.github.io · ▲277

    I got pretty good at (and very addicted to) the lunar lander game from a few days ago... so I decided to make an autopilot for the lander based on what I felt like was the best strategy! Now I can have perfect landings every time without lifting a finger :D Writing the autopilot code was a lot more fun than I expected! It felt a bit like programming a robot.
