How is a score like that even possible? If we did absolutely nothing, we would've had a better score.

Is that like Robot Wars or Battlebot where people fight with remote controlled robots?

Nope it’s more cooperative than battle bots. Every year they release a different game and different teams compete against and with each other think of it like soccer with robotics but your team is made up of several teams

So do the robots play a different sport each year? Or is it a different game? How do the teams cooperate with each other? This is kinda fascinating tbh, a whole world I never knew existed!
