RoboRuckus: Robot Game
RoboRuckus is a completely open source game inspired by the excellent board game RoboRally. The game involves players attempting to navigate actual robots through a zany obstacle course in a race. This game is still in development. Come by to try it!
What inspired you to make this project?:
This project was inspired by my general drive to make things and make them awesome. While we've always enjoyed the classic board game RoboRally, we're fortunate enough to live in a time where it's not only possible but also affordable to do something like improve the game with actual robots. We hope that this project will help people discover both a love of gaming and making.
