The game starts with single neurons and progresses to deep multi-layer networks, requiring players to solve real training problems with decimal targets and ReLU clamping. It is a single self-contained HTML file with no dependencies and works offline.", "body_md": "SYNAPSE is a browser game that teaches the math behind neural networks. You're given a network (inputs, weights, biases, hidden layers, and outputs) and you tune the numbers until the network produces the right answers. It starts with a single neuron (output = input × weight + bias) and builds up to deep, multi-layer nets. Later levels are real training problems: the same weights must satisfy several input→output examples at once, with decimal targets, negative weights, and genuine ReLU clamping, so guessing won't cut it, and you learn to solve them. Includes 12 levels, a level picker, live feedback, hints, and a per-level explainer. Single self-contained HTML file, no dependencies, works offline.\n\n# Tylersuard/Synapse_neural_net_training_game\n\n## Folders and files\n\n| Name | Name | Last commit date | ||\n|---|---|---|---|---|", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/i-made-a-game-that-teaches-you-how-ai-works", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/Tylersuard/Synapse_neural_net_training_game/tree/main", "published_at": "2026-06-28 04:50:27+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-28 05:04:29.632911+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["neural-networks", "machine-learning", "artificial-intelligence"], "entities": ["Tyler Suard", "SYNAPSE"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/i-made-a-game-that-teaches-you-how-ai-works", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/i-made-a-game-that-teaches-you-how-ai-works.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/i-made-a-game-that-teaches-you-how-ai-works.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/i-made-a-game-that-teaches-you-how-ai-works.jsonld"}}
