I was on Twitter recently saying how there aren't enough games in which you're a Roomba.
So here's a game where you're a Roomba. Clean up as much dirt as you can in 45 seconds (timer measures half-seconds), getting bonus time for each dirt speck collected.
Arrow keys control the dang thing; you can't move forward while turning (intentional behavior).
Music is based on plugging in the name "Renegade Roomba" into Dunc's Algomusic IIIb.

Neat. Reminds me of that WarioWare minigame...
When I was planning this out
When I was planning this out in my head, that was a pretty strong influencer in where I was going with this -- the minigame in question was part of a set that got ported to the TI-89 of all things (calculator software: the ultimate in bedroom coding adventures).
