Here's a game you guys might find interesting. A friend of mine showed me this earlier today.
TIS-100 is a programming game where you write code on a fictional processor using an assembly-like language to solve puzzles. What's interesting is that the game splits the processor into a network of nodes, making it so you have to consider topological adjacency in your programs. It's pretty fun. :P
It's on steam, and it's only $7.

Sounds pretty fun.
Looks cool (And very hard O.O)
It's actually not all that difficult so long as you read the manual :P
Though optimizing your program can be very tricky.
I might pick it up some time... I like asm too
Grr, so many good games and so little money :(

^ That. :(
I still need to get AoE and KSP sounds like fun and this, and that...
I have KSP, though idon't really play it much <_<
Scott Manley made a video about TIS-100

i should pick this up
Also i like how reviewers talk like they know anything about asm xd

create our own version with z80? :P
EDIT: yay! i bought it! i like it too, only i wish there was a "return to home menu" button or something
EDIT2: i found the esc key...
EDIT3: wow im loving this. Also could the random scrambled words be encoded? We need to figure this out O.O
Interesting. That reminds me some BASIC game that Builderboy made once, bbut more elaborate than his game of course. His game was kinda a puzzle.
Siapran loved playing with Notch's D...ASM (you know, the chip he designed for his failed 0x10c project), he will surely like this game.
Appearantly there are undocumented instruction too o.o like 'hcf'
Looks like there are lots of hidden things too.
I found the Builderboy's game I was talking about earlier by the way: http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/433/43386.html (LightBot)
It's definitively different, though, but that's what TIS-100 reminded me of, since it's a programming game.

Will it halt and catch fire?
It does indeed :P it exits the game

Would you guys suggest getting this? I have 13 dollars, and AoE and How 2 survive 2 are on my list... Why not this one? (go steam sale!)
it certainly sounds fun but I have not played it, so sorry. But if you have extra money then sure ;)

I don't think it's on sale atm. Its only 7 eur/usd (stupid companies thinking they're the same <_<) though
Yeah for some reasons everything in Europe is more expensive than in USA. Even calc companies do that >.<
I myself am unsure if I will get it, though, since I'm afraid it will be too cryptic for me
That's not true. Google Glass was cheaper over there.

I would wait and nab it once it's on sale, but it's definitely worth a buy.

In most cases stuff is cheaper in America, though. What is usually more expensive here are phone plans and appartments.
