RoboSumo - Robot programming simulation game

Miscellaneous Forums/Blitz Showcase/RoboSumo - Robot programming simulation game

RoboSumo is a 3D computer simulation of Robot Sumo. Robot sumo is played by two robots, trying to force their opponent off the playing area. This "sport" is really a king-of-the-hill game played by robots on an elevated platform. In addition to standard robot sumo, RoboSumo includes the use of missiles (optional), which can be used to blast the opponent off the playing area.

RoboSumo allows you to program and customize your robot by selecting from multiple body styles, wheel styles, and flag colors. You can also adjust the gearing ratio. You can configure the electronics to use a microcontroller chip, so you can program your robot in the BASIC programming language, and watch your robot fight all by itself!

If you don't want to program your robot, you can configure the robot to use remote control, so you can control your robot manually, using the arrow keys, and the space key to fire a missile. With two remote control robots selected, you can use the arrow keys, while a friend uses the WASD keys (and the left control key to fire missiles), allowing you to compete against each other.
