About this game
...Have you ever seen these videos where neural networks learn to control physics-based characters?

You are in control of an active ragdoll in a computer physics simulation. Move your legs manually with gamepad sticks and triggers to retain balance and walk.
You have various tasks to complete:
This game can be challenging at first, as it is partially inspired by QWOP, a 2008 game by Bennett Foddy. But if you get a feel for it, you can walk and navigate the environment with little effort, as demonstrated above.
(UPD: This game was made before Bennett Foddy announced "Baby Steps")
