microfly

Cuts small spiking brains out of MaleCNS v1.0 and runs each fly in its own Web Worker in a browser arcade world, from an 11-neuron circuit up to a forager of about 3,400 neurons and 205K connections. The world reports odour at each antenna plus taste and never steers: walking, turning and feeding come only from output spike rates. Weights are signed synapse counts divided by each target's total input, and hunger scales sensory gain. Three optional mechanisms cure the lockstep firing a large subgraph shows. A change is kept only if it beats a random walk and a size-matched random graph.
