You can get bonuses though. The optimization algorithms do not get bonuses.

The other players are fake right?

I think the other players are other optimization algorithms

Found 184 minima. Either I am very good at finding global minima, or the other players are looking for maxima.

Fun game. Suggestion: make it slower to ascend steep slopes so that you have to be more selective in looking inside deep cliffs.

Oddly fun, rotation is a bit too fast for keyboard controls for me.
