Originally created in 9 days for the SSU Spring Game Jam; a minor update has been released since

"Robovac Software Engineer Simulator 2535" is presumably a highly accurate simulation of working for a robotic vacuum company in 2535.

In RSES2535, you must write a program for a robovac so that it will clean the room it is placed in. You must write your program in an original low-level programming language inspired by assembly (a moderately short manual on how to play the game is included in the download).

Heavily inspired by the programming games by Zachtronics (TIS-100Shenzhen I/OEXAPUNKS), you are also encouraged to try to optimize your working solution on three separate metrics.

Although having the traditional zachlike histograms was too much for me, if you want some scores to beat, here are mine for each level:
