Call for testing -> `algobot` game

Hello ! World.

It would be of crucial help if I have some feedback on the algobot game of which I created a snap version :slightly_smiling_face: . The game has been released and is available on the snap store.

Algobot is an educational game developed in Belgium that aims to teach players the fundamentals of programming and algorithms through a series of interactive puzzles and challenges. The game centers around a friendly robot, which players must program to complete different tasks in a digital world. By writing simple code snippets, players guide the robot through various scenarios, ranging from navigating mazes to sorting objects or solving more complex algorithmic problems.

The gameplay is designed to be both fun and educational, with a focus on developing problem-solving skills and logical thinking. Each level introduces new programming concepts, such as loops, conditionals, and functions, allowing players to gradually build their knowledge and confidence. The puzzles are carefully crafted to be approachable for beginners, yet challenging enough to keep more experienced players engaged.

Algobot offers a visual and intuitive coding interface, making it accessible to a wide range of players, including children and adults who are new to coding. The game also includes tutorials and hints to assist players as they learn, ensuring a supportive learning environment.

By combining elements of gamification with educational content, Algobot makes learning to code an enjoyable experience. Players not only learn valuable technical skills but also enhance their ability to think critically and logically, all while having fun guiding their robot through the game’s imaginative levels.

Thanks ! :pray:

Hello, I’ve installed it right now. :slight_smile: I run the 1920x1080p “Good” and it loads correctly and fast, but I can’t play it because it says that “This version can only played in Belgium”. Is this expected?

P.S. I can’t even exit that screen pressing a key or a mouse button… I have to press Alt+F4

Hi ! @aci.

That’s intentional. :slightly_smiling_face:

You can use a vpn to workaround this step (just once).

So your geoblocking passed the test very well…

Now the question is: why did you put a geoblocking on a game? It seems a wonderful game, but I can’t understand why you’re cutting off the rest of the world.

@aci, It was the core developers who decided that this version of the game(algobot) would only be available in Belgium. :slightly_smiling_face:
