How does your game fit the theme?
My game is about using a programming loop to get a robot driving a car across a track and then back to the start. You use a programming loop to make the robot do a loop around the track!

Great spritework! If you destroy the robot when it is stopped and has all of the flags, it will complete the level. Overall I had fun, but I would love to see more challenging levels!

Very interesting, I liked the pixel art a lot

This game has a lot of charm, and doesn't feel condescending as many programming-based games often do. 

I had to do a lot of experimentation to determine the exact effects of the instructions, because the left/right blocks in particular are not immediately intuitive. Once I understood that turning is delayed by one turn while Going, and that turning does not happen when against a wall, things started making more sense.

The artstyle in particular is awesome. The par was pretty simple to beat in each level once I understood the instructions.

Good stuff! Love the sprites, the robot has so much personality
