Hello,

I had this game on my Mac IIsi. It allowed you to tell these robots what to do in order to capture a flag.

The trick was they had to kill/defend (your self from) the bad robots.

It was a 2d black and white game.

Does anyone remeber the name of this game? Or where I can get it today? I miss this game.

Thanks

Not sure...what kind of game was it? Did you have to program the robots?

Speaking of old games...anyone remember these?







I'd kill for native Aqua/Quartz graphic remakes of these or completely new games of this genre.

I am remebering a little more.

You basically placed robots on a map of buildings streets trees and the like.

You could tell them to be on autofire and select where they would look for the enemy robots.

You could tell them to fire at a certian point for x shots or something like that.

It was fun but simple by todays standards. You did not have to do any programming it was all just clicking on predefined stuff.

The last picture is of Crystal Crazy/Quest written by my friend Patrick. The last I heard was that it was going to be carbonised.

This game sounds like a game I played around 92-94 called RoboWar (I think). The game played like such...

You could pick types of robots and position thier sensors in a certain area and tell them to shoot anything that came in their way. It seemed like you could also have walkers that moved on turn based. The game I'm thinking about was in color though and I'm thinking that the people who put out MINOTAUR put out RoboWar (or whatever it was called.)

Dunno if that helps....

i think it was called robosport or maybe robowars is correct. in any case i still havent found it but i know its somewhere. i'll get back when it turns up

RoboWars is a game where you full program robots and enter them into competition. You can use varius weapons, totally program it from the ground up. Then enter it into public online competitions. It was awesome. I wish someone would do a remake of it.
