You can download Vergere here!
How competitive is it?
N/A (Awaiting RoboRumble results.)

Can I use your code?
Sure! (Although there isn't much...)
Any use of my code must follow the ZLib License.
What's next for your robot?
Nothing planned at the moment. If I have an idea, this page will be updated.
