Fix it r0b0t 10 takes 5th placePrint page

The game we're talking about here is called Fix it r0b0t 10 (notice the zeros in the name!). While you can play it online in your browser by visiting https://commocore.itch.io/fix-it-r0b0t-10, I will walk you through the game. So... it's year 2026. A distant galaxy has been traversed by a scout spaceship with a r0b0t on the board. As the spaceship has entered the radioactive area with a strongly magnetised field, your task is to control the r0b0t under the hazard conditions. And worse yet, right in the middle of a meteor storm! You must take care of the repairs to the spaceship's hull to prevent radioactive dust from getting inside. That's all about the background story, feel free to check the game for yourself.

And I have good news, this game took 5th place in the PUR-80 category. There were 31 entries in total, most of them really fun to play! 

Also this year, I spent most of the time working on the copy, cut and paste feature for the Basic Abbreviator cartridge that helps me writing these BASIC 10-Liners. In the video below, I'll take you on a journey through time and space to explain the challenges, talk what BASIC abbreviations are, about the development of the cartridge, and the game itself.
