Incompatible Genres ? Hmmm is it combatible to have a rat in a kitchen or to control your game with your webcam ?

For each ludum dare in which I participate, I try to learn something new. This time it's https://js.tensorflow.org. Because it's incredible to be able to do deep learning programming in JS !

I've used this tutorial as a starting point : https://js.tensorflow.org/tutorials/webcam-transfer-learning.html and then develop the game with pure JS and HTML5.

Surprinsingly, I've had more trouble with my rusty JS than with tensorflow ... I probably shoud have use a lib like Phaser Js instead of writing everything on my own.

/!\ I just added a post comp version with some minor bux fixes (you can now restart by pressing R and you can no longer launch the game without having trained your neural network), I suggest you to play this version for a better experience /!\

HERE'S HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME (with your webcam) :

1- For each control you need to provide some pictures of you holding an object(a fruit or a vegetable for example :)) in a specific direction. For IDLE I suggest you to hide the object your holding. (hint : you can hold clic to capture a lot of picture fast)

2- Then you have to clic on "Train ratatouille" and wait a little for the number to go down.

3- After that clic on "Let's cook" and be ready to play !

4- Show the object on the direction you want to move the character. You need to catch the cheese and avoid the mouse trap !
