Robots and Girl - first game play demo - Global Game Jam 2009

This is our game from the Global Game Jam 2009. This is two of the developers playing through the game. It is both frustrating and strangely rewarding, considering it has no ending (YET!). It was developed in 48 hours using XNA 3.0 by 3 coders and 2 artists. We had never used XNA before ... it's awesome. It's played exclusively co-op using 2 Xbox 360 controllers.

The objective is to collect macaroni pieces so can you make a necklace for the girl that the robots have fallen in love with. The robots are armed with a ninja rope or jet pack, and for some added frustration they magnetically repel each other; this mechanic is also used for reaching high places.

Good work, looks hair-pullingly annoying. I would smack the other person playing.

It totally is! Too bad it's co-op only. Palan would kill each other with this. (P.S.: That means we should do it as entertainment at SmashFests)

You guys missed a macaroni piece D: Shame.

The game is hair-pullingly hard. It's why I love the concept! See, with me, the more I'm swearing at a game, the more I actually love it. The harder, the better.
