We're happy to announce the first of our biweekly patches has gone live! While the game is in Early Access, we plan on posting regular updates, some may include new levels, some minor gameplay tweaks or features. Since the launch of Early Access, we've collected a ton of feedback and improved various parts of the game. The main issue is still in the UI and we're planning on making a major update during the following two weeks. In the meantime, Steam OS users and other Linux users can finally play both the demo and the main game on their systems. We're hoping for a MacOS release soon. A full list of updates includes:

Linux release
Robot and main menu sound effects
Additional hints regarding features that weren't explained properly
Lowered music volume
Fixed issues with overlapping components in the editor
Added missing hints
Reworked editor click detection

Thank you so much for all the feedback, we're constantly working to make Sketchbots the best game possible!

This seems rather easy, doesn't it? You just move up a few tiles, turn right, shoot, turn left, move up a bit more and you're done. Well yes, the solution is fairly obvious from where we're standing, but put yourself in the body of that little robot and try to see the world from his perspective. Each turn is a new set of parameters for him to process and his view of the world is very limited. You might see the target behind that wall over there, but all he sees is the wall.

Fortunately, now you can use your superior knowledge to help the little guy find his way. Create a complex decision tree which will help him overcome any obstacle in his way.With an ever growing number of levels, your programming skills will be put to the test in more and more complicated ways.

If you fail at first, there's a detailed overview of what decisions he's made and you can easily pinpoint where it all went wrong. After all, what is programming other than iterating through solutions, getting closer and closer with each step, until that wonderful moment at the end when you clench your fist with pride after a successful run and take your well earned walk around the room to show everyone just how clever you really are. This is how Sketchbots will help you feel with each completed level, all while enjoying its beautiful, school-notebook-inspired, art design.
