Developer: Dave Carter
Genre: Platformer
Release: 2003
Rating: Everyone

Yes, this is the same "Nano Bot" made by the talented Dave Carter that one the RPG Maker Pavilion contest. Saying that, I knew it had to be good. One, it's made by Dave carter, very well known for his awesome games. Two, It uses an improved version of Dave's platformer engine for RPGM, and three, its passed Valkysas' test and came out victorious in the Final RPGM Contest at the RPG Maker Pavilion.
I couldn't wait to try out Nano Bot.
Nano Bot is the story of, well…Nano Bot, a Virus hunter manufactured to fight the Mother Virus, a killer virus plaguing Neo Tokyo. To stop Mother Virus, Nano Bot must collect energons from each of the 4 switchboards; the puzzles start at very easy but get quite tough near the end. After clearing all the switchboards and the mainframe, it's time to take down Mother Virus. Do you have what it takes?

Presentation
+ I was simply amazed at the level of detail that Dave put into Nano Bot. The stages were superb (especially the mainframe) and functional. And the custom characters graphics nearly made me fall out of my chair.
- None, presentation was as near to flawless as possible on RPG Maker.
[Final]: 25/25%
Features
+ There is one feature that everyone is sure to notice when they fire up Nano Bot, the amazing platformer engine. Dave has done it again, but this time even better. The tiny robot can cling to the ceiling, climb ropes, and much more. Simply stunning.
-Though I hate to say this, while great fun all the way through, the objectives of collecting energons may get a little repetitive. I do like the way you have to use your brain to get to them, but maybe in the sequel you should consider different items then energons all the way through?
[Final]: 23/25%
Debugging
+ I say this in almost every review I give; most RPG Maker games are crawling with bugs and glitches. Once again, Dave has pulled through for us and eliminated almost all of these.
-- I did notice that twice through the game, a weird glitch caused me to be able to walk on air at random places; this in turn caused me to lose my life. :P
[Final]: 22/25%
Fun
+ If I could give this category 5000/25 I would. Nano Bot is by far one of the most enjoyable games I have had the privilege of playing on RPGM. I could play through this game countless times and still not get bored. Great job!
-Nope, no negatives!
[Final]: 25/25%
[Overall]: 95/100%
Congratulations Dave. I am sincerely looking forward to the sequel….you better make it! :p
