Description

Robocoder

You are in charge of a little robot named Robo. Robo can be programmed to do your bidding. At first, however, Robo can’t do much, just move forward. But by obtaining the memory pieces in the game, you can extend his memory size, making his brain grow. As the brain of Robo will get bigger and bigger, you will be able to make him do more and more complex tasks.

Robocoder is an educational puzzle game that, while you are solving (hopefully) entertaining puzzles, will teach you the basics of various programming techniques like:

  • Procedures
  • Functions
  • Loops
  • Conditionals (if, then)
  • Debugging a program
  • Object Oriented Programming (OOP)
  • Methods
  • Recursive programming
  • The programming stack

The game has been tested on multiple Windows systems, if you're having trouble getting it do display correctly at higher resolutions (e.g. 1920 x 1080), please try to disable DPI scaling. (rightclick on robocoder.exe -> Properties -> Compatibility tab -> Check "Disable display scaling...")

Have fun!
