Bobby Witt is my second battlesnake. (below: light pink with rattler tail)
- Will avoid the wall if possible.
- Will avoid snakes' current position if possible.
- Will avoid going head to head with a snake.
- Will look one move ahead to avoid danger.
- Will avoid hazard sauce.
- Will eat adjacent food if safe.
- Battlesnake is super cool.
- I deployed this snake using Cloudflare Workers
- I wrote unit tests for various scenarios the snake may find itself in and what I expect it to do (or not do)
- I added the ability to run the snake locally with node.js. It is very close to the same code which runs in cloudflare.
run locally:
DEBUG=1 node local.js
