I gave it a lot of info about vex games previously with some descriptions, how matches work, etc, and (this was before the name reveal) I asked it to generate some games (none of them were over under btw), and then after the reveal I just gave it the name and asked it to generate a description and it gave me that

I’m going to bring information on field elements because I thinks it’s relevant. For comparison here’s the spin up field kit:

I found a video posted by a channel called VEX Robotics that has a teaser for over under or as they call it in the video Over the top and it appears to be a stacking game and from the looks of the stackable items I think clawbots are going to be making a return
Do you have a link? 20 char
Over the top was (unfortunately) an April fools joke made with a fake vex channel.

It’s going to be a knitting game, we are going to have to make grandma robots to knit and whoever has the longest blanket after 2 minutes takes the win. I mean, what else are we supposed to do with all that left over expansion string???
