[edit] Design

The game description (engl.) is only with readable with great effort, as it is partially depicted with blue writing on an orange background. The bio laboratory, the insulating material and the robot are created with the commodore graphical signs. The sound is without relation to the game.

Game description

[edit] Hints

The program is self-explanatory. A demonstration is started approx. one minute after the start of the game. The robot can only push, not pull.

The game can be operated completely by the keyboard.

Alternatively you can switch to joystick operation.

[edit] Critics

Rombachs C64 game guide: "The idea of the game is quite inventive, but the design is not very impressive. The assigned task is easy to fulfill with the joystick. It is rather interesting to play against time, see the demonstration for comparison. Judgement: 4"

Sledgie: "The game reminds me of a Boxes-like game. But in Aldebaran time is an important faktor. Additionally the illustration is reduced to symbols. Due to the Basic coding the movements look a bit bumpy. Altogether I gave the game 5 points."
