Introducing VbRoboCode: Robot battle simulator in Visual Basic
VbRoboCode is a robot battle simulator. It was inspired by the original Robocode. I wrote it so I could program in Visual Basic .NET instead of Java, and so I could make improvements to the API and function library. In my opinion, writing a bot in VbRoboCode requires less grunt work and is more fun. VbRoboCode comes with 11 sample bots that illustrate a wide variety of bot programming techniques, from simple to advanced.
