Redbot's Reboot is one of 23 prototypes being pitched for Double Fine's public Amnesia Fortnight. Check out the other prototypes and watch their development live at http://www.humblebundle.com/double-fine

Of course everybody knows Redbot as explorer of the great gray pyramids and teacher of programming methodologies. What most people aren't aware of, however, is that he is also a connoisseur of a wide range of different alcoholic beverages. Every once in a while the algorithm that is supposed to control his intoxication level fails for mysterious reasons (Redbot blames gamma-ray radiation) and he has a few too many drinks. One buffer overflow leads to another and before long memory gets corrupted and Redbot has absolutely no clue how to get home anymore. This is where he will need your help! In this strategic platformer you have to program Redbot to find his way back home. After cueing up individual traversal operations like walk forward, jump or slide (to name just a few examples) you can reboot Redbot and see your plan unfold. But did you account for that new oil spill or the other roaming robots? No matter the outcome watching Redbot stumble through the world is fun and he probably won't remember a thing anyway...
