Waste an afternoon...'programming' with this game
- nostrademons 18y agoToo bad there're no conditionals. 'Twould be fun to write a brainfuck interpreter with this.
- collint 18y agoYeah, no way to halt my recursion. :( We may be too advanced for this game :(

- listic 18y agoI remember playing a robot programming game back in school some 20 years ago. Some time ago I had a discussion about games with my younger brother and told him about it. Yesterday he showed me this game saying "Look, I found the game like that one you were talking about" Thanks to the authors for re-creating that experience. I wonder which game they modelled their about. The newer game has got isometric view and better sound(though from what I hear it is still tracker music), the older had moving staircases and single-stepping debug. But for the most part, it's still the same which is amazing given that both programming technologies and game industry have gone light years since then. Someone would call it "too simple" but isn't it amazing that a robot programming game basically the same as the one from 20 years ago is still fun and relevant enough to be rated high on Reddit and Hacker News?
