Bomberperson is a maze-based multiplayer for 2 - 4 Players, that was programmed in a C++-project following up the respective university-course. All players should try to eliminate each other and be the last one standing. Player can place bombs which explode after a certain amount of time in multiple directions and can destroy obstacles and other players. Destroyed obstacles can drop power-upgrades that temporarily improve a Player. The Player is killed if they get caught by any bomb exploding or get hit by the Koopa-Shell too often.

Delving into the realm of self-driving cars for my bachelor’s thesis, I endeavored to optimize their tactical decisions, particularly speed, using cutting-edge deep neural networks and reinforcement learning in tensorflow within a transformed racing simulation. The resulting research platform, built on Unity, showcased the potential of real-time feedback and adaptability, offering valuable insights into the future integration of reinforcement learning in self-driving cars.
