Alright. So we know that @typesafeai Jev can fight, but can Jev shoot and avoid getting shot? I had Jev playing one of my favorite arcade shooter, Time Crisis, to test it out. I would say it did pretty well, but it's also because I also gave it a pretty good harness. With one more simple rule, I believe it will actually clear the whole game.
