[–] mquander 16y ago ↗ This is an absolutely fantastic game for learning recursion concepts! I'm going to give this to my nothin'-but-C++ programmer friend and see if it stretches his brain.Many of the harder puzzles are both beautiful and challenging.
[–] yread 16y ago ↗ try level flooder! It's not hard but veeery cool to watch :) [–] latortuga 16y ago ↗ I got it right on the first try as sort of a guess and you're very right, I was not expecting that and it was neat!

[–] delayclose 16y ago ↗ For the silverlight-impaired, Light-Bot is a similar game and works in Flashhttp://armorgames.com/play/2205/light-botedit: Ah, I didn't notice there was a javascript version too. Oh well.
[–] hagg0 16y ago ↗ looks like a ripoff of Light-bot game http://armorgames.com/play/2205/light-botfunny that they copy a game and make it more boring then the original, in light bot you get to program robots in 2.5D and not arrows.light-bot is better :edit: too late [–] pavelludiq 16y ago ↗ Checked them both out, light-bot doesn't seem to have conditionals. Don't want to have recursion if its going to be infinite :D [–] crux_ 16y ago ↗ Eh, this is better :) (Reason: conditionals + repainting the stage).
