- maweki 9y agoI think there's a lot of audience for this kind of game on Linux but there's only one launch. I would have bought it straight away. The dev said they would look into it, but I probably wouldn't notice or remember to look in the future.
- 52-6F-62 9y agoSteam wishlist? ;)
- maweki 9y agoI did wishlist it but steam won't remind me when it's available on Linux (and the wishlist doesn't show, I think). Maybe I get a reminder in a year that the game is on sale.
- khedoros1 9y agoAgreed. Neat-looking, and reminiscent of the Zachtronics stuff I have, but I'm not in Windows that often.
- PleasingFungus 9y agoSorry for the disappointment! I am told that the game works fine under Wine, fwiw; otherwise, I'd suggest checking back in a few weeks! Set a calendar event :P
- PleasingFungus 9y agoIt's out on Linux now :)
- bsaul 9y agoNo mobile apps ?? I was ready to buy it on my ipad...
- PleasingFungus 9y agoI'd like to do a mobile port at some point, but it'd require a complete redesign of the UI, so that's way out in the future.
- 52-6F-62 9y agoI honestly looked because of the other comments here. I'm definitely grabbing this. Great idea
- sogen 9y agoWow! Congrats! Nice flattering comment from SpaceChem/TIS-100 author!
- pxndx 9y agoCan't recommend Manufactoria enough. It's from the same author.
- lithos 9y agoI've been playing this a bit. It's fun but the game eventually takes a difficulty nosedive when they introduce clockspeeds, each module running at different speeds, and 3 different types of null at the same time that are used differently between modules. I also think that some of the visual programming languages should take some hints from these devs. I haven't seen one work as nicely as this and I've tried/worked/watched a handful of them in reality (PLC programming, and teaching kids).
- PleasingFungus 9y agoThanks for buying the game, and for the kind words! I'm not sure what you mean by 'three types of null', though. '-' is null, '?' is NaN (which is kind of similar), and...?
- Nullabillity 9y agoI guess hazard (? that stabilizes) could be considered a kind of null too, even if it's more of a sign that you need to increase your clock cycle (or pipeline harder), than a sign of a logic error.
- lithos 9y agoI was counting '-', '?', '-?', and '??'. which would be four I guess. But they tossed me off kilter on Saturday trying to figure out what they mean (and I haven't gotten back to looking at it again yet, though will eventually).
