You can download Colobot 1.9 from the link I placed below the image. It is a compiled version by me from the source code given to PPC - Polish community of Colobot.
I only extended the function 'aim()' so it can take another 'y' parameter to turn a robot turret left and right as well. In the original version it could move the turret up and down only. The game is very good for kids to learn programming basics and logical thinking.
In the game the player plays as an astronaut who builds his robots to colonize other planets.
The player can program these robots.
You can find the game here
or optionally here
The source code can be found here.
Description taken from Wikipedia:
Colobot (Colonize with Bots) is an educational real-time strategy video game featuring 3D graphics. The objective of the game is to find a planet for colonization by the human race by establishing a basic infrastructure on the surface and eliminating any alien life forms endangering the expedition. The game takes place on the Earth, Moon, and 7 fictional planets. The main feature of the game which makes it educational is the ability of the player to program his or her robots using a programming language similar to C++ or Java.
The game has been recommended by the Polish Ministry of National Education as a teaching aid for learning the basics of algorithms and object-oriented programming.
Epsitec has released the games' source code under GNU GPL v3 after being contacted by PPC (Recently rebranded to ICC & TerranovaTeam). LINK.
