So I'm not sure if this is the right section and whether people are interested or not. But I basically started to create a game from scratch.
I know quite a bit about software development because I work for a software company, but I'm in sales. I don't have any coding experience, but somehow I managed to get quite far already.
Right now I basically have multiplayer working, a demo system, achievements layed out, a couple of arenas, and most importantly a bot that can already rocket jump; air strafe and fight pretty OK.
The bot already learned 'the pit' a ammomod_mge style arena and his aim + movement is pretty good. I'd say like a 2000 ELO player.
I also made a map called 'Arcadium' with a mini spire in it. The bot can jump to it from 3000 different cells in the arena. Using multiple different strafe options. It took me fucking 88million runs in 5 .bat files to create the total map_path for the bot to know how to go from A to B in the middle of the fight.

Anyway, the purpose of this thread is the following: I'm going to reach a point where the bot is too strong for me. I'm not that good anymore because I barely have time to play. Are there good players out here who would like to help playtest it and improve the bot, whilst fighting for a reward prize? I'm thinking just like 500 Euro or something for the effort. But I want to first be confident in the bot's skills...

Let me know if you are interested

disclaimer: yes I use AI to assist on the coding part. But I am always in control of the decisions and anything impacting the gameplay. I don't hide the fact I use Claude and can even make another post about how I'm running 18 agents with their own departments...
