Today i discovered PostBot, a free, homebrew game for the GameBoy and emulators. It made for a fun rainy-day activity. The premise of the
game is that you are programming a robot to maneuver around obstacles
and deliver mail to mailboxes. The game has eight levels, each level progressively more difficult than the prior level. The robot has six operations: turn left, turn right, move forward, deliver mail, do F1,
and do F2. The main program has space for 10 operations. F2&F2 each
have space for 5 operations, and recursion is allowed. Clear a level
by delivering mail to every mailbox on that level.
The game can be played in a browser-based GameBoy emulator, and there
is also an option to download the ROM, which is roughly 64KB in size.
I played it in the zboy emulator on FreeDOS. For download links, see
below.
