The game for 2019 is called Deep Space and this year there is no autonomous period but instead a period called "sandstorm" in which the drivers can not see into the arena but can control the robot "blindly" or via a camera, and it is up the the discretion of the teams to either use a camera or do autonomous. As well there is a standard 135 second telop period. The game is pretty plain this year in that you must put a hatch on a spaceship of three varying levels or a cargo ship with the same lower most level height of the spaceship. After you must place a ball or cargo into a scoring portal in either the cargo ship or spaceship (with heights different than the hatch placement). In order to accuire RP you can either finish the game by climbing platforms and totalling over a certain end game score and or you can place all hatches and cargo into a spaceship.
This years robot's unique features include:
