AWESOME idea. This is a super ultimate hyper cool game concept. It doesn't really work, mainly because the stuff you set up in your robot never goes away (kind of limiting the programming aspect), but it's so cool. So cool.

Program robot to solve puzzle...... hmm... Everybody keep an on the next release from Hamumu Software, it might be a little familiar.

Innovative idea. The drag n drop robot programming was really neat, although it definitly needs to be refined more. Didn't seem to be any construction.

I agree, its a cool concept, but its really not clear what the goal was. Instrucions/working help would have been nice. I did manage to kill all the sheeps with the combo "laser+bomb+button+rocket", but there was no "you win" message or such. I think its pretty straight forward where more effort/time could have gone. I.e. more levels, instructions, clearer interface (perhaps some diagrams as well). Just like you mentioned in the code, it was rushed so there's not much to give much credit for. I like that you try all color depths until you find one that works. I should have done that one myself :).

I really enjoyed programming the robot, but the robot didnt exactly follow my commands! Reminded me of lego logo, good job!

Not finished? Pressing H for help didn't work, and killing all the sheep in the level didn't do much either. The game seemed like a very nice idea though.

I agree with all of the others who have mentioned what a great idea this game has. I think it is a game that definitely should be continued.

I have gameplay innov a 4 because it is very innovative. The fun got a 3 because it was kind of fun, but frustrating. Hard to tell exactly how the robot is going to work for me. Sound n/a. The technical got a 3 because it was all right, but it needs more work. More time, actually.

Gameplay theme got a 5 because it had construction (very well-done, more like construction than most other games), and you destroyed sheep. Cosmetic got a 5 because, well, there were sheep.

Completeness I gave a 2. There was only one level, and the help screen crashed you. With more work, this game could be really good. More tools for your robot, better robot function, more levels, etc... these things could make for a great game. Hope you keep working on it.

whoa.... The programming thing is cool, even though I didn't really know how it works. For some reason this game is really fun though.

Really cool idea. I didn't really understand exactly how the robot programming worked but it was hilarious watching it keep doing funny stuff like bombing his way off the screen.

I like the idea, but it was difficult to actually figure out how to go about killing the sheep. The game kicked me out when I tried to get the help, so I assume the file wasn't included. I think more gadgets and more control over the robot would be even more cool.

The concept is great, and fun to play. Whith more time and some artists it could be a really great game.

Great idea and fun until you realize the programming language is missing some essential pieces to making a good sheep killing robot (more than one laser type, pieces that check the ground tiles, etc.). The one level is fairly easy to beat, but you have to make a specialized robot rather than a general purpose one. There's nothing inherently wrong with this, but you don't have enough levels to support it. The potential fun is very obvious (level one was great for a while), just not finished yet.

(the fun is hard to rate here because it's great fun but in a very small dosage)

Great idea. very fun, although frustrating at times. I built a robot I call "The mad bomber" who jumps around blowing things up, and he killed all the sheep.
A game like this needs instructions and probably a tutorial. Graphics were cute, I took off points because you were missing weapon graphics and this made it more confusing. (BTW, if you've never played the board game "ROBORALLY" pick it up, it's a great example of this kind of gameplay)

ShredWheat

I don't know if i elegently beat the level, but i strapped rockets and bombs onto all the sensors, eventually i cooked all those sheep. many impressive technical things in this one.

A working help screen would have been nice, but it's a really cool idea. I think I finally figured out how it was supposed to work. Would like to see it in a more complete state.

A very interesting idea, but the execution has some problems. Pretty much what everyone else has already said. :)

Slate

This game really does the theme well and is a really cool idea. It's good to see a game with programmer graphics with a cool game idea. Yes that is a compliment. With cool graphics, sound, and tweeking the UI a bit, this game could be very sweet. I rated 4 overall because gameplay, fun, and theme are really what this contest is about.

UberHaxor

The idea was pretty good, but I think the "programming language" of the robot was a little too simple to make any good robots. Also there should've been some more levels to offer any kind of challenge.

The game implemented both the gameplay and the cosmetic theme very well.

Gutter

Weird. Not sure how to finish the only level. but still very original.

General:
Pretty cool, I like the idea. It is something that could be good if fleshed out more. A readme file would have helped, I was confused at first.

Breakdown:
Overall - 3 - I weigh highly on fun-factor, but knocked you up a point for the robot programming idea.
Innovation - 4 - Extra point for the robot programming idea, I like it.
Fun - 2 - The robot programming is too hit and miss for my liking.
Graphics - 2 - The initial robot screen knocked you down a point, it confused me.
Sound - N/A - I don't think there is any
Technical - 3 - Seems about average for the competition.
Gameplay Theme - 4 - Fits construction and Destruction well, Construct Robot and Destroy sheep.
Cosmetic Theme - 4 - There are sheep and you work them into the game.
Completeness - 2 - A good idea, but it needs more work, hard to tell what it going to happen when you program the robot, kind of confusing in places, I don't think it has a you win/loose condition yet. Some extra levels would be a good addition too.
