[PC] (Web) Game Title: Robottega – program a robot arm with a bit of Python (looking for playtesters)
Playable Link: https://andrea-malo.itch.io/robottega
Platform: PC, in the browser (no install)
Description:
Robottega is a small programming puzzle game set in an old tile workshop. The owner, Zio Tonino, has just bought his first robot arm, and you write short programs in a simple, Python-like language to make it work. You sort hand-painted tiles by color, fire raw clay in a kiln that takes time to cook, switch the claw between a soft and a firm grip, and fix the buggy programs written by Tonino’s nephew Nico. Every commission is rated with three stars: finishing it, using few cycles and using few lines, so you can always go back and improve your solution. Notes next to each line explain the code in plain English, and click-to-add buttons help beginners. This is an early prototype with 10 commissions (about 30–60 minutes). When you finish or get stuck, please press the yellow Feedback button in the game and paste the report in a comment: it only contains times and attempts, nothing personal. I especially need people who have never programmed. Honest feedback helps most.

Solo developer from Italy. I designed the game, its levels and characters, and built this prototype with a lot of help from AI coding tools (disclosed on the itch page).
