We present FootsiesGym, an open-source environment for learning in a non-trivial two-player, zero-sum, imperfect-information game. Built on HiFight's minimalist 2D fighting game Footsies, it isolates the cyclic, non-transitive strategic interactions of fighting game neutral play while remaining simple enough for efficient analysis.

arXiv:2608. 05422v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While many algorithms blend reinforcement learning (RL) with counterfactual regret (CFR) methods to leverage tradeoffs in computational speed and performance, there are fewer investigations into generative sampling frameworks in game theoretic applications in incomplete information games.

arXiv:2608. 05954v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a powerful but far from easy-to-use technique for policy learning.

arXiv:2602. 11399v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As unsupervised pretraining becomes increasingly ubiquitous in reinforcement learning, a more thorough theoretical understanding of these methods becomes of equal importance to their empirical success.

arXiv:2607. 27536v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning a strategic task changes more than what is directly taught: fine-tuning on one game can either enhance or degrade an agent's ability to reason in another.
