 }}''[[Droid]]'' is a top-down marble maze that seems to exist largely to explore the behavior and potential of Game-Maker's background blocks.
-The play tries to navigate a ball from the start point to the end point; along the way, the level tries to engage the player with basic logic: solid and semi-solid walls, gravity, momentum, animation, monster birthing, lock-and-key sections. The ship from ''[[Void Raiders]]'' (and Joshua Turcotte's ''[[Orb]]'' before it) is there to menace the player. In principle it's all very straightforward.

 ''Droid'' is a worthwhile try, and in its ambition fairly similiar to other test-the-waters games like ''[[Blipp in: Power Panic!]]''. It gives a basic sense of what works and what doesn't in RSD's engine, though due to its signal noise it doesn't always illustrate why. It must have been a learning experience, and for future designers it may be worthy of study for all the reasons described.
