Those graphics are adorable!
Cool idea, I wish the interactable zones were highlighted in some way. Cute Music and art. Good Job!
I couldn't figure out how to play, but thumbs up for graphics and music.
This is a pretty cool idea, and adorable art. I couldn't tell if there was an action queue (guess not) and couldn't complete it, but I like the concept!
Sweet graphics and music! I also like the idea with the programmable robots.
It's like a real-time version of Gobliins. It's a bit hard to figure out how to plan everything, but I almost solved the puzzle I think...
I managed to piss off the bull, now to get the potato.
never got the hammer bot to smash, cause he kept getting hooked on the collision. Enjoyed the game though. original idea and cute artwork
@Pinktreeleaf, because time ran out, there is little on which smashing has any effect. The collisions should consistently work fine, except visually.
@Liz England: there is indeed an action queue, but you cannot inspect it - only clear and append to it. I've updated the description to hopefully make things a little more clear.
Nice! Clever idea for a puzzle I think. Found it tough to figure out how to work the robots though, never managed to get the potato :(
nice job. difficult though - I guess I had to get the red dress to enrage the bull, but the farmer kept stopping me.
The robots are adorable! It's a fun idea, but sometimes the robots don't seem to do what I expect- for example, I kept trying to give the hammer robot an order to smash the shed, but he just ran all the way to the fence at the right and stood there instead. I also occasionally had some issues with the action queue not clearing properly. I could definitely see this being polished into a fun little game though!
@Amber: apparently there is sometimes a problem with 'clear actions', we're working on it. Refreshing the page should work.
@Dry Tree: I guess we made the puzzle a bit too hard. Maybe you can find a way to stop the farmer from chasing you? Find out what each robot can do on which things. Some actions do not have any effect (these options are just there to make the puzzle harder). Find the actions that do have an effect and combine them in the right order. ;)
Loved the personality of the little bots, but had a lot of problems getting them to go where I wanted them to. Fits the theme quite well!
Gotta love potatoes!!!
Your idea is really original. It's a bit difficult to see with which object robots can interact but the game is interesting.
Interesting idea.
I like the art and the music. Didn't figure out how to control these bots though
Cool story, but could not take the potato :(gota try harder)
The music is charming! So are the graphics! The puzzle is quite good -- once I'd figured out how to do it, it still took some time to get all the timing right, but without being overly difficult.
There are some small bugs -- I once collected water from the flowers, it seems. It would also be nice if you could see the actions queue somehow: as a list, or even as a series of lines and icons in the field.
@Frozen Fractal: Thanks for playing! :) We know that there are some bugs... resfreshing the page is at the moment the best solution. ;) We were thinking about showing the action queue with lines and circles, but we didn't have time to implement it. Maybe we will make a post-compo version that fixes these things, one day... :)
Great puzzle game with nice graphics and audio! It's fun to try out the different possibilities. Only the missing visualization of the command queue makes it harder than necessary. Overall a good game, I enjoyed playing and I hope you find some time to make a polished post-jam version!
Haha nice little game, nice graphics, cute music :)
The robots not being able to find their way around is a bit annoying, this'd probably more fun with smarter pathfinding and a visible action queue.
hahaha very funny and interesting gameplay theme I like it!
