Your plan.
Their next move.

You do the thinking. Your robot does exactly what you tell it. Every step, turn, and perfectly timed jump starts with a command you put in place.

No coding experience needed.
Curiosity recommended.

The adventure ahead

100 levels.
One complete story.

At full launch, journey through 100 levels with a complete story mode. Start at Orbital Academy Seven, build smarter routines, and follow a sci-fi mystery far beyond the training bay.

Think it.
Queue it. Do it.

That little “aha!” moment?
There’s a whole game of them.

01

Read the room.

Find the goal. Spot the gaps. Look for a tempting detour. The route is yours to figure out.

02

Make a little plan.

Arrange command blocks into a routine. Move, turn, jump. Every instruction has a job.

03

Let it run.

Hands off! Watch your robot follow the whole routine. Missed the landing? Tweak the plan and try again.

Beyond the training bay

One more turn.
One more discovery.

Start small at the Academy. Then take your growing command collection into the corridors of the Terrapin, where gaps, lasers, and a limited battery give every move a little more meaning.

Explore the worlds

Some things still remember

An old language.
A mystery to unravel.

Somewhere between the bright lights and the next checkpoint, an old terminal is waking up. Logo. Turtle Graphics. Familiar words, perhaps. What are they doing all the way out here?

PROCTOR would prefer you concentrate on your training.
