A downloadable birds for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Hiya! So thankful for the 50+ people who downloaded this build last night. It's such a treat to have people enjoy something you make.

Today I'm pumping out a Mac and Linux build of Alpha 0.1.2 and then continuing work on a set of new features for Alpha 0.1.3.

Planned Features

  • Neural biases — gives birds' brains more adaptive power! This is very technical but very very important for an artificial neural network.
  • Less instantaneous mimicry. It's cute but it means birds over-adapt to the thing they're currently looking at, forgetting old lessons.
  • The beginnings of controller support!
  • A more substantial main menu, with a New Game button and changeable parameters!
