PSP_Bot is a port of Light-Bot flash game by Coolio-Niato, a reflexion logic strategy game made by Geecko.

This was submitted to the NEO Retro Coding Compo 2010 (Game).

User guide

The concept of the game is to guide a little robot to all the blue tiles and light them up. In order to get there, you will have to define a series of movements, and validate so that the movement starts.

You can order the robot to go straight ahead, turn left, turn right, jump, light up the square, perform function 1 and function 2.

Function Principle:

• They are the set of grids on the left of the screen.
• These are the main actions where robot will perform under your commands.
• However, in later stages you will find it requires more moves to get the robot to reach all the destinations. This is when you need to utilize functions 1 and 2.

Function 1 and 2:

• They are the stacks of grids in the middle and on the right of the screen.
• Each of these functions can contain 8 movements. It is enough to define them and, place them for a function in the main actions.
• In other words, the robot will perform the desired movements, and only one square will be used on the main grids.

There are 12 levels with a growing difficulty. At the end of the game, you know how many commands were used, this is your score; the less commands you use, the better.
