I love this game, although in the later levels I cheated by having a simple layout and restarting the run over and over until I was lucky enough to be given a random combination that happened to work with what I had. That's how I solved Seraphim, anyway. Ideally this kind of cheating shouldn't work at all...
Before they got impossible, I did love the puzzles, though. I loved that I didn't have to be physically looking at the board to figure out a puzzle, I could walk around town thinking over possible strategies until something fit into place. Not many games can be played in absentia like this.
I'd like to see more sets of levels, though. And maybe the option of an infinite playfield for us who are incapable of making concise machinery...

I must be stupid or missing something important on the Androids level. I have my system set up to ensure that there is always an equal number of reds and blues, but the bot with 48 strings comes along and is outputted by my machine with equal reds and blues, but it was supposed to be rejected? Is there some sort of criteria I'm missing here?

This game is wonderful! I love how I can apply quite a bit of what I learned in Comp Sci last year to this game (Most obvious is Roboplanes with sorting algorithms) . It's very challenging but I look forward to the day when I actually finish the whole thing.

Sorry, but again I must ask: is this a game of solving by trial and error? It doesn't seem possible to account for every possibility with such a small space. I'm normally adept at games in which one "programs" a machine to build or sort something, but this seems totally absurd. Can anyone give a helpful tip? Or perhaps post some easy-to-follow solutions for the early levels that would actually work on any robot that could come out of the door?

Question for someone who's seen all the levels: are you ever given a blank input? Not having to worry about that would make a lot of my designs simpler, if less rigorous.

It doesn't accept "GR" instead of "". Weird, because it accepts "G..." instead of "..." and "R" instead of "". I guess it's a bug.

@sometimestommy: First time I saw this game, I figured it was Zach with a different account. This game is not at all from Zachtronics Industries. The creator even goes as far to say that Zach was an "Inspiration" for this game.
