Dude! You just completed the Friends with Functions achievement in light-Bot and won the Friends with Functions badge and 30 points!

This game was pretty easy, very basic programming, I kept wanting another function to make it more efficient instead of hard coding stuff in the main, but then it wouldn't have been challenging.

The beginning isn't too intuitive. You gotta start thinking before you even start playing. Bad thing in my opinion.
The interface also needs some work.
Oh and the difficulty ladder is really off. Level 10 was by far the hardest, the levels before it were a joke.
Good game!!

level 8 is too complicated, i would try it but it seems like a waste of time just to get to level 12 for the badge...

196 moves. used the walkthrough for 10-11 though. One of those obvious things that you overlook until you see someone else do it. Loved the game though, would like to see another with a level select option.

Game completed. Level 10 hard. Had to sleep on it and magically could do it the next day (maybe the badge helped). It's a different challenge to "real" programming -- unless you're optimising for a CPU with a tiny instruction cache. Also would be nice if it did a "trace" by highlighting which instruction it was up to.

Horribly glitchy mouse controls! You choose one command, and it gives you a totally different one. So you have to reset the whole thing? No, you conclude this game about game design sucks, rate it 1/5, and play something better.

184 commands:
Level 10) Go to the light closest to you first, then drop the start position and execute your first 8 moves again
Level 11) Repetition: f1 is 4 lights 4 moves, f2 calls f1 turning and jumping, Main calls f2 with turns and jumps
12) jump light jump light jump light, add turns as needed.

Was hoping for a place to use a self-referencing function. Oh well, I'll just have to imagine he's iterating a forward jump, light up off into the sunset.

Also, the music is quite repetitive, and the lack of color makes the game seem unfinished and quite dull. Good idea, baaaaaad implementation.

GRR!!!! This game frustrates me to no end! Not because of he difficulty, mind you (all you need to do is use the functions correctly.) My complaint is the command buttons! They're so glitchy, they interfere with the game as a whole! I try to drag a light bulb down to function 2, but for some reason, the glitchy mouse controls make it so that I let go of the light bulb in the main function window, causing it to replace a vital command. When I try to replace that one, the same thing happens. When I FINALLY get everything right, I accidently hit the reset button instead of the go button, and I have to do EVERYTHING over again!

I don't see how people don't understand functions... We get em in algebra so why not here?
This is seriously like a graphing calculator in a dumbed down version.
