Will look into getting that done as soon as I have some more time at hand!

  • Bots are Stupid - Hints and Tips! - 15 December 2022

    Hello everyone! If you’re reading this, you’re probably looking for ways to improve your game, to get the best time possible in each of the levels with the least amount of lines in your code or simply have a better time within the game… Hopefully, these few hints and tips will help you along your journey within Bots are Stupid! #1 The first tip I can give you is to be patient; even if you are not aiming for the best score possible and just aiming to complete each level, it will take time to tweak your instructions and many failures until you can complete most levels. #2 Tip numero 2. While tweaking your instructions, it is possible to pause and slowly move backwards or forwards in time without having to restart. This will allow you to get the exact timing to hook yourself away from certain death or propel you towards completion without having to restart each time. Though I would recomme…

Cheers, Lele

  • Bots Are Stupid v1.5 - 9 November 2021

    Biggest changes: Live Script Editing: you can now edit the lines the bot hasn't reached yet. This is enabled by default and changes some of the shortcuts, but can also be disabled if you prefer the old way. Frame Locking: Right-click the reset button after the simulation has been started to lock the current frame. The simulation will then always be reset to that frame until it is unlocked. Massive Performance Improvements: high-tech world records are actually watchable now! '-tickrate' nerfs: recently, almost all of the leaderboards have been dominated by some form of tickrate manipulation where the tickrate is changed multiple times mid-run to allow for more favorable physics calculations. Even though this is super interesting in theory, it will have to be (temporarily) removed, since it makes it way more tedious to find perfectly optimized runs and is also extremely confusing for newe…

Short description

An ultra-precise 2D platformer where you give robots instructions instead of directly controlling them. Master the campaign levels or create and share your own. “It’s Mario Maker with coding” - Lewis Brindley, Yogscast.

About this game

Bots Are Stupid takes the 2D precision platformer genre and populates it with an infinite supply of stupid robots. Use the game’s simple programming language to teach them how to reach the exit, then watch as they follow your direct instructions, often dying in the process. With over 40 levels to command and conquer, there’s a substantial challenge for everyone. All commands are designed to be as simple as possible, meaning you are not required to have any prior coding or tech knowledge to program the robots - the puzzles come from creating routines that complete certain level objectives quickly. The game also features a sophisticated level editor, allowing players to create their own challenges which can be shared with the world. Show them how it’s done and then refine your routines to top the speedrun leaderboards. Over 40 uniquely challenging platformer levels Endless challenges and puzzles thanks to the game’s inbuilt level editor and level sharing Levels feature additional mechanics such as grappling hook, speed boosters, conveyor belts and more The bots follow your orders to the letter, no matter how stupid they are Infinite supply of bots!

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $12.99
  • Highest observed: $12.99

Bots Are Stupid's USD price history spans from Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $12.99, the highest is $12.99, and the first visible tracked price is $12.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Bots Are Stupid's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $12.99, from Sep 22, 2026 through Sep 22, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $12.99. The latest run records $12.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $12.99
  • Current list price: $12.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Bots Are Stupid at $12.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
