BeatBots by Ace
Welcome to the world of BeatBots, a series of simple 4-bit robots.
The robots run at 1hz, or one update per second, and execute variable length commands with between zero to four bits of data.
You've been hired to help control the robots out in the wild by feeding them commands to help them solve their tasks while avoiding dangers.
A tutorial is provided to help guide you through the whole thing, and will teach you the most important of the commands. If you want more commands to use you'll have to find them yourself. (Or check the source / GitHub)
The only two keys you'll need to play this game is 0 and 1, so make sure you have them on your keyboard.
Not that I know of any keyboards without them, but still...
PS: You can also press 'R' to reset the level if something goes wrong.
(Linux builds will hopefully come soon, but until then it's Windows only)

"Failed to open sound file "explode.wav" (couldn't open stream)"
Sorry about that

That could be the source of the missing DLLs (I'm guessing they were named something like MSC140.dll?)
Love the way you used the theme. Very well done!
Brilliant idea.
