What

I like Slay the Spire (even though I am bad at it). I frequently think about how hard it would be to develop an AI that can play the game. I decided to finally do it myself and find out, and learn Rust along the way.

Currently, this means a baby game engine which implements the most basic game mechanics, a simple "AI" which can bumble its way through easy encounters, and a simulator that can predict a deck's performance when card rewards are selected.

For way more info than you probably care about, see my dev logs about the project.

Roadmap

• Silent starting deck
• Basic and Elite encounters
• Powers
• Monte Carlo card reward picker
• Relics
• Events
• Potions
• Randomized maps
• Deterministic seeds (maybe)
• The rest of the owl
• Neural network gameplay

Generative AI Policy

Every single line of code and text in this project was written by hand. No code produced by generative models is included.
