About:

Simultaneous turn-based tactics set to a beat. Drag a Move, Attack or Teleport icon to queue your robot's next step on the timeline, plan around the spikes and enemies that move on the same rhythm, then press Execute and watch the whole board play out together. Fifteen short levels that start gentle and turn into proper little puzzles, with the author's own music, sound and art. Made in two weeks for the Gamedev.js Jam 2026, where it placed third overall. If you get stuck, the arrows beside the level number skip ahead.

MACHINE DISCO Sneak into the robots-only disco in a bad disguise: watch how the robots dance, crack the pattern, then dance like a machine without getting caught.

Lantern Delve Carry the only light down eight floors of the Underwarren, read every fight before you take it, and gamble on unknown potions and scrolls. Pick a warden, scout or adept, reach the core at the bottom, and climb back out. Same seed, same dungeon.

Spark Dodger Thread a tiny maintenance bot across a live circuit grid. Roaming spark-creatures move by fixed rules, so every step is plannable. Shove insulating blocks into shelters, charge every power cell, and slip through the gate once the board is clear. One move at a time, with undo and one-key retry.

0h h1 Fill the grid with red and blue: no three in a row, equal counts per line, no two lines alike.
