You've all seen this dinosaur from Google. How to "revive" it
Surely many of you have seen the image of this dinosaur on the screen of a smartphone or laptop in the Google Chrome browser more than once. But many do not realize that he appears there for a reason, but on the initiative of caring developers. Access to the Easter egg opens if you tap on the dinosaur in the absence of an Internet connection
It turns out this dinosaur can come to life on your screen and turns into a funny character in a rather addictive Dino game.
The genre of this free flash game is an endless runner in which a dinosaur has to jump over numerous obstacles on its way. The dinosaur starts moving automatically after the first touch.
After that, the player can only jump and crouch. At the first collision of a tyrannosaur with an obstacle, the game ends, and the number of points earned is recorded on the screen. Points are awarded for the elapsed time.
According to Google Chrome designer Sebastian Gabriel, the dinosaur was chosen for a playful nod to the days before the internet was ubiquitous. The name Tyrannosaurus did not acquire by chance either. It was named "Project Bolan" after the famous vocalist of the band T-Rex from the 1970s.
The Google dinosaur game first appeared in 2014, after which the developers have been trying to achieve stability on different Android devices for several months.
By the way, it is not at all necessary to wait until the traffic runs out, leave for a remote village or turn off the Internet. You don't need to download the app either. You can start a flash game by simply pasting // dino.
Do not be discouraged if you did not manage to complete the game to the end, because, according to the developers, it will still not work. The game is programmed so that it can take about 17 million years to clear all obstacles.
How to beat the Google dinosaur game
Recently, many resourceful programmers have tried to "write" various bots for this game in the hope of reaching the final. For example, recently an American student taught a neural network to play this game outside of human reaction.
To do this, he wrote a simple self-learning neural network that works on the principle of reinforcement learning. This means that on the first try, the artificial intelligence knows nothing about the game. He simply begins to interact with the surrounding reality by the method of trials.
At first, the American made many versions of the artificial web and put them into play. Those versions that turned out to be more successful, he left and again sent to the game.
This happened until the network learned to flawlessly overcome all obstacles at superhuman speed. True, sooner or later the neural network still loses, since the moment comes when it does not keep up with the frame refresh rate.
Little tricks
There are several cheat codes with which you can trick the system. To do this, in the desktop version on a computer or laptop, simultaneously hold down the F and F12 key on the upper case of your keyboard.
After that, the page code will open on the side. We are interested in the "console" tab, where we have to do a little work.
Just insert the values that we have prepared below and the game will sparkle with new colors for you.
Codes: Running in place Runner.instance_.playingintro = true
Running normally Runner.instance_.playingintro = false
Running in front of obstacles Runner.instance_.gameOver = function () {};
Change the speed value in brackets Runner.instance_.setSpeed (100);
