Picked it up but haven't gotten past the manual. I figure even if I don't play much I'd donate 15 bux because this is an awesome idea

u buy for 3 bucks plus change and then give the TIS key to a friend who doesn't have it yet. if you look on the TIS steam page it should say X friends want this game if anyone on yr list does.

echinopsis posted:and so then i get infinifartactory for free??? you pay $3.50 or whatever the average is at the time, and you get everything in the first tier plus everything in the second tier. so volume, tis-100, legend of grimrock 2, infinifactory, the secret world, and dungeons 2. you get a separate key for each game so just give away the keys you don't want

even programmers have a hard time with these games, they're more like puzzles than regular programming

yeh it's 100% logic puzzle game with a programming theme. if you can sit around and learn the rules to settlers of catan or w/e you can play this game too

I love zachtronics games and yet always burn myself out optimizing solutions before finishing the game so I haven't actually beat any of them. will shenzhen be the one to break the pattern?? lol no feel free to add me on steam to fuel my optimization addiction: http://steamcommunity.com/id/aquariumoflies like others have said knowing programming doesn't really help. tis-100 and shenzhen both use overly simplistic models and focus on challenging you given the restrictions they impose. I like both these games though cause beating one puzzle usually unlocks multiple others, so if you get stuck on a puzzle you can work on something else. you'll be fine without being a terrible programmer if you can think things through. or stubbornly brute force things, I have some shameful solutions solved by slamming chips together:
