Robot Game Design

You’re going to create a game to play with your new robots. Each team must submit a game design.

Game Requirements

·  Incorporate these

o  ALL the balls that you will be given.

o  Two robots competing against each other.

o  Multiple separate goals and/or objective (more than one way to score points).

·  Do not require robots to contact the other robot or damage anything (this isn’t Battlebots).

·  Game field/arena must fit into the back corner of the room (you decide exact dimensions).

·  Robots and all game components must be in the same specific location at the beginning of the game.

·  It should be practical and realistic (in other words, something we can do in the classroom).

·  It shouldn’t require building anything complicated.

Game Design Requirements

·  Develop game instructions including the name of the game and all rules – be specific.

·  Draw the game field/arena including dimensions, starting locations for everything, objectives, etc.

Recommendations

·  Test your game and use your results to refine your rules.

·  Though you must submit your own, you can work with other teams and use each other’s ideas.

Game Play

After all games are done, I will analyze all the games and choose which one we will play as a class. I might even combine aspects of multiple games.
