Nice game!
Guess I'm not asking for a roomba for my birthday after all
It would have been great with some hectic music and maybe the character could say stuff when the robot isn't doing the right thing. Like getting stuck at the wall for a bit. Or if there seems to be no progress in specks collected or real progress towards closest speck being made. That would have added a lot to the mood and humor of the game.
But as a very interesting puzzle I liked it a lot.
Nevertheless simple but effective, well done.
Lighting and models are clean and crisp.
I loved the foot mechanic, alternating feet - and how they rotate depending on the direction from the source. Just brilliant.
And I have actually tried to direct my Roomba:tm: with this method so extra points for realism :laughing:
Great job!
