Game playing AI bot
Every once in a while a silly idea grips you and you decide “Screw it, I’m going to do it”.
That happened with me with a game called Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook. My friends online have been competing for high score for the past few weeks. I got to thinking…”How hard would it be to write a program to automate playing this game..?”.
This is the result of that question. It took a few days at a few hours per day. Probably about 6 hours combined time. Right now the bot is able to play pretty well. It can do better than I can most the time (although my high score currently beats the bot’s high score). With some improvements, I expect that will dramatically change.
Anyway, here’s a video of the program in action.
Update:
The autoblitz bot just scored 258,400.
Were can i get this bot ????

It works on the Facebook bejeweled blitz, which tracks your scores online. Not sure if that answers your question.

[...] a very versatile DJ who can craft a good mix out of almost any genre. And he has a post about a bot that can play bejeweled, along with its source [...]
