LogicBots is currently available via SteamвЂ™s online game portal but Ken is building a new version that will be available directly for download, so as to avoid the problem of school-based players needing to install Steam in order to play. вЂњI have recently finished an educational version of the game thatвЂ™s being used in some schools outside New Zealand вЂ“ IвЂ™m keen to find out if thereвЂ™s interest locally as well.вЂќ

Knowing the game would appeal to teachers as well, Ken has turned his attention to the education sector. вЂњThat gave me the money to be able to build the current version, which is available via Steam and thatвЂ™s now self-sustaining in terms of income.вЂќ Ken funded the creation of the game via Kickstarter and was able to build the basic game off the back of support from around 500 investors. вЂњThereвЂ™s also a sandbox for robots so you can build your own, tinker for a while and get it going the way you want,вЂќ said Ken. There are even language packs available to convert the game from English into French, German, Chinese, and Hungarian.

Already the online community has embraced LogicBots and is creating its own world puzzles for others to download. The game comes with 40 built-in levels and has five in-depth tutorials to help guide new players.ДЄ level editor allows students to build their own mazes and puzzles. Levels may be obvious mazes, outdoor spaces (well, virtually speaking) or require robots to navigate through darkened rooms or clamber over obstacles and even climb vertical surfaces. Once the robot is complete, players then must navigate their robots through each level of the game. Players create robots out of virtual components (wiring, batteries, wheels, sensors and so on) just as they would in the real world. The game is played in two halves вЂ“ first, players design and build their own robots starting at the most basic layer. Meet LogicBots, an educational game where players build virtual robots to complete puzzles using logic gates. So, he started making computer games about robots instead.
