Still need to polish it up, but it’s been coming along. I just added a battle royale mode. Items and the backend server side needs work.

Seems like Google is back in the game, though not leading the frontier anymore.

From what I understand he has been pretty tight lipped for a guy who has a larger stake worth more in his company than Dario does in Anthropic.

You have to remember DeepSeek v4 flash even though a bit cheaper, does not have vision abilities, which is a big draw for agentic tasks.

I admire DeepSeek's openness, but even they have been raising prices after their discounts.
