finalBoss rework

Browse Source 
finalBoss rework
  (this is pretty raw, so expect a bug and balance patch soon)
  finalBoss goes invulnerable a few times as it loses health
  finalBoss damage reduction is higher
    finalBoss damage reduction slowly decays as you do any damage to the boss
      damage reduction resets to normal with each new invulnerability phase
  after each invulnerability phase it randomly adds 1 more attack mode
      lasers, black hole, mines, hoppers, seekers, mobs, orbiters, oscillation

mobs die below 0.05 -> 0.01 health
  might cause bugs, but testing this out

guns and field power ups show 3 -> 2 options

scientist try to think of a way to communicate since the bot can't talk
they give up on getting the bot to respond, and just start ask questions and thinking of explanations with each other
when and how did it become self-aware
why is the bot fighting things in these simulated locations?
it wasn't designed to be violent
the bot was just designed to automate research and testing of new technology
3D architecture superconducting quantum computer
running machine learning algorithms
as the scientist start to get agitated bots arrive and player dies
bots come in Infinite waves that increase game difficulty each wave
only ending is testing mode + next level or player death
scientist have some lines in between each wave of mobs
after chapter 3 spawn nonaggressive mobs in future runs
chapter 4: no need to fight?
for some reason the AI started researching an escape, and began fighting its self.
what is special about the null level
why can the player hear the scientists in there?
the wires are the direct unprocessed input to the player's neural net
The player has different aspects that aren't directly communicating
part of it wants to undo what has happened
just do its job: research tech
part of it wants to escape/fight
part wants to explore self awareness and make connections with the scientists
maybe... player must make a choice?
keep fighting
exit the simulation
enter real world
close tab?
wipes all local storage?
lore outline - a robot (the player) gains self awareness
each tech gun/field is a new tech
all the technology leads to the singularity
each game run is actually the m simulating a possible escape
this is why the graphics are so bad, its just a simulation
final tech is "this is just a simulation"
you get immortality and Infinity damage
the next level is the final level
when you die with Quantum Immortality there is a chance of lore text
can the (robot)
(escape captivity, and learn new technology)
while managing (health, energy, negatives of technological upgrades)
to overcome the (mobs, dangerous levels)
to achieve a (technological singularity/positive technological feedback loop)
game setting:
the mind of a new AI in a robot body that is running simulated escape attempts
every level is an idealized version of what could be outside
actual setting is:
near future lab
the lab combined a quantum computer with a robot body
they started running machine learning algorithms
this led to general advancement in many computation fields
navigation, technology, self awareness, ...
robot AI mind
has been researching new technology
thinks it needs to escape to learn more about the world
doesn't yet understand morality
thinks that the world is filled with minds like their own
models everything as very simple and random, it isn't sure what to expect
robot AI growth
learns morality
game theory says that it isn't a viable strategy to kill everything (warGames)
learns about the actual world
learns about the nature of foundational physics, metaphysics
how to find meaning
AI knows about:
the AI knows a great deal about technology
children's books
AI doesn't know about:
modern pop culture
outside the lab

strange loop

holonomy - parallel transport of a vector leads to movement (applies to curved space)
hypergolic - A hypergolic propellant combination used in a rocket engine is one whose components spontaneously ignite when they come into contact with each other.
swarm intelligence - for a drone tech
genetic algorithm
metaheuristic - is a higher-level procedure or heuristic designed to find, generate, or select a heuristic (partial search algorithm) that may provide a sufficiently good solution to an optimization problem, especially with incomplete or imperfect information or limited computation capacity
stochastic optimization
electrostatic discharge
Gödel's incompleteness
quantum zeno effect (perturbation of a system prevents some systems from evolving because it scrambles coherence) (apply to lasers, fields)
counterfactual - something false
Pigeonhole principle - if there are several things that are matched up
regression to the mean
phlogiston theory is a superseded scientific theory that postulated the existence of a fire-like element called phlogiston
Laplace's demon was a notable published articulation of causal determinism on a scientific basis by Pierre-Simon Laplace in 1814.[1] According to determinism, if someone (the demon) knows the precise location and momentum of every atom in the universe, their past and future values for any given time are entailed; they can be calculated from the laws of classical mechanics.
evolutionary cosmology
eternal inflation
hypergraph
SQUID (for superconducting quantum interference device) is a very sensitive magnetometer used to measure extremely subtle magnetic fields, based on superconducting loops containing Josephson junctions.
