Trying to play through #SpaceChem again. Like every #Zachtronics game, there's a certain point where the difficulty curve goes from "hard" to "my brain actually feels bruised at the end of each puzzle"

Wow, if you enjoy engineering-ish #PuzzleGames this is a good deal on a bundle of games from the #Zachtronics catalogue. https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/2925/The_Zachtronics_Puzzle_Pack/ - Individual games are 50% off and the bundle is 60% off on #Steam #SteamSale

I’m the kind of developer who wishes he had opinions on microprocessors. But honestly, the only assembly language I’ve ever been good at was TIS-100. #tis100 #zachtronics

Super proud that I figured this out on my own. Not the best at coding, but it works! It even handles unexpected starting conditions. #shenzenio #zachtronics

#EXAPUNKS is such a cool game, I've seriously played 37h in the last week..

It's a programming game where you hack stuff with actual programming that's sorta easy to learn. It's super satisfying to learn all the tricks.

Learning involves reading actual zines that you can print out. When you beat a level you can export a gif of the results of your code.

Can't recommend it enough: https://store.steampowered.com/app/716490/EXAPUNKS/

I've added a framebuffer display and the ability to dump memory to my 8086 simulator.

I'm having a lot of fun working through Casey Muratori's performance aware programming course. It is like a Zachtronics game that breaks the fourth wall. I mean that in a good way.

What did you get this #SteamSpringSale? So far, #GraveyardKeeper, #ImpostorFactory and #EXAPUNKS. Why do I get games by Zactronics? To feel dumber, I guess.

Tldr play Eliza yo, it's short, it's on point, and I hated it precisely because it's so good.

#Eliza #Zachtronics #Videogame #videogames #visualnovel #Visualnovels

Anyone else played the game Eliza by Zachtronics? I need to disclaim that I didn't love it, because it's so skilled at writing a cast of believably abhorrent people who either think they are good actually, or don't care that they are awful. But eh, given the recent turn of events with AI and corporate approach of it, Eliza was disturbingly prophetic.

I don't often buy games on release day at full-price but there are a handful of devs whose stuff I'll purchase automatically every time. Llamasoft, Size 5, Zachtronics, Introversion, etc. Who are yours?

#AskFedi: Have you ever played a #Zachtronics game?
What's your favourite one?

I just hit 100 wins in
#Zachtronics Fortune's Foundation (which is quite an achievement), and to make the occasion a little extra spicy, I ended with the Fool as the final Major Arcana.

I finally played Eliza by #zachtronics, and it felt like a gift made just for me. On the very off chance that anyone involved in its production is reading this, thank you.

I assumed I wouldn't enjoy it as much as the other Zachtronics titles. I couldn't have been more wrong.

Rick gave me one of these boards at the cyberpunk bar nite between the years. It's a physical rendition of Zachtronics' Shenzhen I/O using Padauk microcontrollers. :flan_cool:​I love it, so I made a command-line programmer for it. :crt_w_prompt:​
https://github.com/rickp/MC5000_DevKit

Built and tested on OpenBSD.
Docs need to be polished and I should port to Linux before pushing it to Github, but here it is right now:

Das Spiel ist schon arg nice, wenn sich dann alles zusammenfügt... #zachtronics #opusmagnum

i should just buy another #zachtronics game. which one should i buy aside from opus magnum

I looked at my #SteamReplay and am honestly a bit disappointed Zachtronics isnt higher up. I should play more #Zachtronics games, those are games I actually enjoy a lot. I deserve a little Zachtronics, as a treat

omg, I'm just tuning into zacromero.io's talk for #emacsconf in which he presents a #zachtronics style hacker game for emacs that is "inspired by #wasm".

#emacs + engineering #puzzle games = match made in heaven, can't wait to give it a spin.

Playing through #Exapunks again is such a joy. I can't wait for a new #Zachtronics game.
