Summarise your game!
CodeBot is a puzzle game about building a robot and scripting its behaviour to get it to a specific destination relative to its environment.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
One crucial element is missing from our game -- the robot's code. That part is left to the player. The player is the weapon. Their logic, creativity, and strategy defines the robot's behaviour.

This so impressive!!! I love this game and what you guys accomplished here! I could so easily see this being turned into a full Besieged-esk game, and I do think it would this would be such a fun way to teach programming. This is an awesome game and especially for a jam. Great work!
Besiege was definitely one of the games we used as a reference. Very glad to hear you enjoyed our game! Curious to see what you came up with
This was such a neat concept! I definitely struggled with figuring out how to balance the robot, but I was able to pass the level just by having it slide around on the ground with minimal code block, which was really funny. The tutorial helped me from the coding side of things, but definitely would love to see some physics/engineering instruction as well in the future. Good job!
Thanks for the feedback! We already have some ideas how to simplify and expand the coding and to make the tutorial more in-depth, fun and interactive.
A nice game that makes you think in a fun, not tiring way. I liked it! :]
Thanks a lot!
I didn't have time to dig really deep here, but obviously you built something really cool here! I love the whole idea behind being able to, in a game, do block coding to finish a stage. It is lacking some UI to help understand things, maybe a tutorial... but I wouldn't expect in a game jam demo, either.
Appreciate it! There is a tutorial button in the scripting window. Looking forward to playing your project
