123 BOTS
A downloadable game
123 BOTS is a tile matching puzzle game for the Playdate. Development is ongoing but you can download a demo with two modes in basic form.
In 123 BOTS you assemble robots. Every robot needs 3 parts: head, body, and legs, but you can add more to increase your score. Oh, and make sure the orientation is right, parts that don’t match stack up and fill your screen until the game ends.
Demo Modes
Endless – Build robots from falling parts until you run out of room. Be careful, boxed parts get added below and need to be unpacked first.
Training – Pass a handful of tests that teach the basic mechanics.

I'm really liking this game. Lovely graphics and concept.
I think a "chill mode" (no gravity) would be a nice feature to incorporate.
While I think the boxed parts are a cool idea, I find the game difficult enough without them.
I have a bit of trouble quickly reading the orientation of the eye blocks for some reason. It should be obvious, but I find myself making mistakes with them, and wishing for a slightly more blatant indication of orientation. That might just be a me problem. My girlfriend has trouble with the legs and not the eyes, so who knows.
Anyway, I look forward to future versions : )
There will be easier modes in the finished game than what's in the demo. I haven't planned to include a mode that completely disables gravity but I'll put it on the wishlist.
I will add an accessibility option that should help with reading the orientation faster. Thanks for the suggestion.
Awesome. Yeah, maybe a zero gravity mode isn't necessary. But different speeds would be nice. I've been playing the game a lot. It's really addictive once you get the swing of things. It took me awhile to figure out exactly what the magnet did. Anyway, I'm really excited about upcoming versions.
