This game is super chill! This could be a great way to expose people to coding for the first time! I love the art style as well, it's performant and looks nice at the same time. Great job on this one!

Developer

thank you!

Wow, nice program-puzzle game! Really liked it! I sort of did something similar in my game, but it is more visual scripting XD. Great job :)

thanks for playing!

Very cool, an undo button would make this even better. 

One of the best puzzle games during this jam, great work

Developer (1 edit)

thank you for playing! An undo button is a good suggestion, I'm also thinking about letting the player reset while saving the robot's code

Its really good game for education I think, it really shows how programing works and looks. And its fun to optimize your code in robot. Easily one of my favourite game in this jam.  But sensitivity could be a little smaller :D

Developer

thanks for playing and leaving feedback! sensitivity can be adjusted by pressing the up/down arrow keys :)

I wish my scripting thing was that good.

Wow, that was amazing! I loved this game. Especially the pixel art style!

Developer

thank you for playing!

Oh I forgot to say, the overall concept of the game was simple, but I loved it. I just wish you could copy paste code and you could also keep the code when you died.

Very cool game. Love the art, the music everything :) good job.

Developer(+1)

thank you :)

Definitely my favorite, and I'm sad it's so short, could be made a lot clearer that you unlocked if-statements, I didn't realize I had them until the last level, and I said, out loud, "I wish I had if statements, then I could make an elegant solution"

This game is wow. It makes fun. Good.

Developer

lol thanks!

Man this was fun! All I ask is more levels! Also my bot was getting stuck thinking there was a crate in front even though there wasn't on the last level.

Would love if you could rate my game:

thanks, glad you enjoyed! and I would love to have made more levels as well but I could only squeeze in so many after spending so long working on the code editor...

I'm curious about this situation though, do you remember what you did or what your code was like?

If you used "checkInFront() == crate" and it triggered when the robot was about to walk on top of a crate, then that is intended behaviour, but I'm wondering now if that's unintuitive?

Submitted(+1)

Ah I was probably thinking literally in front instead of just in front and to the side!

This was freakin awesome!! Like Lightbot but in 3d with scripting style -which is even cooler!  The graphics and vibe were really nice too -got very challenging too by the 3rd level too! amazing work on this!! :D

Developer(+1)

thank you! I hadn't heard of lightbot before, but it definitely looks interesting!

this is truly one of the best games out there! unique gameplay, awesome visuals, amazing music and all that fits the theme of the jam perfectly! good job, i really enjoyed it although it can be too hard for my small brain sometimes

Developer

thanks for playing and leaving feedback! I'm glad you still had a good time even if it was too hard!

best game so far that I have played and don’t have high hopes for finding a better one.

I think I found a bug -> break; didn’t break my out of my loop (lava level). First I did a forever loop with a if/then/break check and it didn’t break out of the forever loop [maybe that was intentional that a forever loop doesn’t get broken out of..]

managed the lava level in 10 lines of code (including closing brackets) - made me think about maze solving bot code ;)

I am mixed on the low resolution render upscale, but otherwise the graphics did great for the game.

Going to put this in my ‘play more later’ pile.

Developer

Hey, thank you so much for playing and for taking the time to write this feedback!

You're right about the break statements not working properly. I think the problem is they only break out of their own scope regardless of whether that scope is a loop or not - so in this case it just breaks out of the if statement and stops there, instead of going all the way and breaking out of the loop.

Awesome concept, awesome execution! 5stars all around (except simplicity of course, but that's unavoidable due to the nature of the game). WOWIEEE!

thank you so much for playing! glad you enjoyed!!
