About the project
A research project running two tiny neural networks on a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W: a looped-transformer world model that predicts the next frame and reward, and an actor network that plays the generated game.
Useful for
- Run the world model and actor on a Pico 2 W to play Breakout, Pong, Flappy Bird, Doom-lite or Pac-Man lite.
- Train a stream-x RL agent from scratch on the board to learn inside the dreamed game.
- Compare exact-frame accuracy of the world model across 1-4 transformer loops for each game.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-29 (UTC), 21:23–22:54: 16 → 56 stars (+40). This is the change over that interval.
- The repository is 7 days old and already has 56 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
