> "Welcome to your new favourite toy! TeleBots are guaranteed to be hours of fun for you and one (1) friend. Don't worry about how good or bad you are at it; your controller will take care of it for you. Just sit back and push buttons, and our state of the art TeleController will drive your bot to victory!"
...is what I'd say if you were playing as the human. In TeleBots!, you play as a miserably sentient RC car controller, and you have to correct for your foolish human operator's button mashing. Thankfully, you have an idea of what the meatbag will do next, so you can at least bend the antenna to try to make those signals do SOMETHING worthwhile. And besides, you know you can control any car you like--it might be a laugh to send the opponent's car sailing into the pool in the middle...
* N (P2 W): fire!
* M (p2 Q): precise aiming/guide mode
* Green: Go (drives straight forward)
* Red: Laser (shoots straight forward to destroy enemy car)
* CTRL-R to restart the game after a win/loss or if you get stuck.
Thank you for playing! I didn't have as much time to participate as I would have liked, but I used the time I had to write some of the messiest code of my life. I hope the final product brings you a little enjoyment.

Balls:
* Blue: Turn (strike the side you want to turn away from)* Green: Go (drives straight forward)

Tip:
* If you really don't want to use the ball you got, you can shoot it across the field to get rid of it.* CTRL-R to restart the game after a win/loss or if you get stuck.
Apologies:
* It is very easy to get stuck because the play boundaries don't collide with the cars.Thank you for playing!
