Description
Use basic logic circuit design to programme a bot to complete a series of tasks.
How to Play
See the in-game bot manual.
Developer Updates
Thanks for the comments, everyone. Ha, ha! What started out as a little experiment that I wasnโt even planning to release seems to have caught at least a few peopleโs attention. Release 0.6: Implemented some of the suggestions โ tutorials, progress automatically saved and the ability to work directly with the internally interpreted script. Unfortunately, the infrastructure doesnโt lend itself too well to communal level designโฆ perhaps thereโll be a Scent Trail Bot II one day. Fixed tutorials now.

Awesome idea, awful realization. Well, maybe I'm expecting too much from release 0.6, but.
1) You can not see all circuits at once. This mean that you either need great memory, or pencil to remember what you did in circuit 1, circuit 2, etc. (game has no bultin notebook, nor builtin truth tables which are good especially for PAL)
Fact that you can't rename circuits to something meaningful does not help.
2) Tutorials are bad: once they completed, you can not redo them, tweeting configuration to see how changed configuration will behave in wild. If they are not completed, you can't do anything, but what you were told to do. Not good if you want to play a little with working configuration and see if different approach
3) No fast forward
4) No "clear all/restart" button.
5) no save/restore for ehmm. code snippets
So, editor sucks so hard that pressing esc and modifying text is the only good way to modify robot.
3/5.

As a degreed electrical engineer, my feeling is that this game could be a great intro to circuit design, but it needs a couple things:
- fast forward
- better explanations, or a hint series for the levels when the tutorial stops
- a clearer separation between the inputs and outputs

quite a hard game to understand, especially if you don't read the instructions and just try to figure it out all by yourself. xD
