Pretty good puzzle game. Took a while to get through some, but it was quite rewarding.

Great puzzle game! Definitely stumped me a few times!!

Very good puzzle mechanic, I really liked the different commands, and you made some pretty clever levels with them.

Really nice. Still working my way through the levels. A good amount of challenge.

On web version of the game I got "Cannot read property 'getParameter' of undefined" message. Anyone know how to fix that?

northman64 2020-10-05 14:18

@zimny11 Huh, that's wierd. Something might have loaded incorrectly, are you getting it every time?

Either way, there's probably not much I can do about the error itself. Here's a link to a download for windows: http://northgamedev.wz.cz/apps/LD47/LittleBots_puzzling_loops_win.rar

I thought it wouldn't be necessary so I didn't include it as everybody prefers web versions.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

@northman64 Yes, every time I get the same message! Thanks for the Windows version. Good game! The level design is really clever!

Great puzzle game! I think this could do good on mobile tbh. Really solid entry, keep it up :)

The difficulty curve needs some work. for instance, level 5 was dramatically easier than level 4. Also with the inclusion of rotating the board in level 6, I would expect the solution for level 7 to require rotating, but it can be solved with [^ > > ^ ^]. In any case, the mechanics are super cool and a really neat take on the theme. Great work!

@blobo Hey, thanks for the feedback. I just put the levels in as they came into my mind so it's possible for some to be easier then some previous ones. Also thank you for bringing the level 7 issue to my awareness, it is indeed intended to be solved using rotating the board. I guess I missed that one :smile:

Very nice little programming game! A couple of levels really made me think hard (especially level 18). In the end, I managed to get through them all.

It would be great to see which levels are already done in the overview, and to be able to speed up program execution. Also, the music was a little faint.

Otherwise, impressive entry, congrats!

Fun game, loops within loops! I found the levels fairly challenging and fun to think through, and was happy to usually get a solution on my first or second actual execution, which was really satisfying. Would have liked to speed up the playback, I often knew I had a winner and just had to wait to see it play out ^_^.

namidasai 2020-10-08 11:02

Pretty good entry, congratulations on your submission! I agree with @jimbly regarding the speed of the playback, that would be a huge improvement. Otherwise, what to say? You've got a cute robot going through a wide variety of puzzles that are challenging yet fair, well done!

endurion 2020-10-10 06:22

Hey, nice! And some pretty tough as nails challenges!

I didn't hear any music at all?

neowedge 2020-10-11 16:51

Nice entry, good level design!

pandakipu 2020-10-11 20:05

Nice concept, i like those programming games, good job

capt-theo 2020-10-12 11:25

Classical take on the theme, nice puzzles there. Was surprised that command rotated world, and not robot.

yetanother 2020-10-19 19:55

super concept, it was quite addictive!

Really impressive amount of game here. I didn't go through the entire thing but the puzzles are very cool and it fits the theme super well.
