Ejik Goes Home

Ejik (pronounced "Yozhik") is trying to reach home after one night that lasted over forty three years.

While this is a game, no human should be playing it. First of all, it's my first ever, enough said. But most of all it was created to start experimenting with deep reinforcement learning algorithms. Can I train one to enable the character to fend for himself? Survive long enough? Can I train the enemies to work together? Is it possible to create more complex problems to solve within the framework of the current game?

Have I succeeded in my main objective: create an interesting enough deep reinforcement learning environment based on a game? Yes and no.
