This week, I was able to implement the first version of my machine learning model for our Breakout game. We also realized that the singleton instance pattern could potentially interfere with our AI training if we wanted to scale and multiply our training level.

Progress is Progress
This past week was the midpoint of the term, and it was a hectic one. The positive side is that we got a lot of work done this week. Lately, we have been focusing on tightening up the quality of our game, fixing bugs, and adding more levels. In particular, we’ve been experimenting with new …

Since each of us created a replica of the same game, this naturally resulted in our game assets being very similar. This made it …
