Description

A sandbox-style simulation with 4 autonomous AI agents and a player that co-exist and interact in real-time on a 2D plane. Bots behave realistically with respect to unique personalities and perform actions at intervals, controlled by a language model. Players will be able to talk to, and influence the bots using communication mechanisms.

Frontend Framework

• ReactJs + react router

Additional Requirements

• AI movement and player movement will be updated live without the need to refresh
• A parallel task queue will calculate AI decisions and actions
• If time allows, we will implement proximity-based voice chat to converse with the AI

Version Milestones

• Alpha: aim to complete user login and stripe, as well as a basic plane and agent sprites (and potentially player movement)
• Beta: implement basic task queue and AI powered agents (polling task queue in intervals of 30 seconds) with a LLM API and communication mechanism
• Final: increase AI action choices and increase dynamic player interaction + deployment
