I think the discord link is broken. Can't join the server

Any plans for steam workshop? Custom user levels?

Cool! That's great news! If you want to you can dm me if you'll need any help with Steam. I've released 2 games on Steam (kinda). I love this game and I'd be happy to help 

Also I haven't published the assembler anywhere yet, but if someone wants it you can dm me

Hi

Wasn't expecting this to get updated. After beating this game a while ago I got very inspired. I felt like there was one aspect of the game that was missing. I really wanted this game to have more program space and the requirement to write actual functions. So I made my own macro assembler :)

It basically has the same functionality SIC-1 has but with more readable syntax, and macross. Here's some example code

function sub(a,b)
{
    b,a,?+1
}
function set(a, b)
{
    !var temp 0
    clear(a)
    clear(temp)
    sub(temp, b)
    sub(a, temp)
}
function add(a, b)
{
    !var temp 0
    clear(temp)
    sub(temp, b)
    sub(a, temp)
}

It all just compilers down to subleq It's quite satisfying to write in. I've made a lot of cool stuff with it.

cool thing. (does something interesting, see for yourself ;) )

So yeah! Thank you for introducing me to this strange language!

Honestly, I have no idea

I don't understand why would you need a separate server for a game like GD.  And what I don't understand even more, is why are you asking money for features from the base game? That's very suspicious. 

Itch removes extra lines and the code becomes harder to read

I've uploaded my solution to github. "SIC-1-Self-Hosting-Solution" 

Done! Solved!

Sorry for blog posting in here. It's 6:30 am and I shouldn't've stayed up for so long. I can't feel my brain

I wrote comments for my code. Should I post it here?

UGHHH! OKAY!

I'm fighting the final puzzle and for a while I was convinced that your tests are wrong. I even ran the program on paper. It seems like everything should work. That's the most EVIL final test. The "subleq 254 0 3"! Since I placed the program after my own code and applied offsets, all values went out of the window. The test not only wants to get the program to modify itself, it also wants the program to be at a correct place... idk if it makes sence but I guess I'll have to restructure a lot of code. 

Which SUCKS cause it passes every other test

Oh! i'm in top 10 players now!

I'll eventually get to the top 

Before I start to reinvent the wheel.

Are the inputs in "Mode" puzzle in second test as low as in the first test? 

Inputs in test one are from 0 to 3

Is it the same in other tests? or will it hit me with 0-100? 

Do I have to write a HashMap or just use inputs as offsets

Nevermind XD

I managed to save the my alg by making it ONE BYTE SMALLER! 

Ok, I'm stuck on sorting :D

The worst part is that I know how most of the sorting algorithms work, but I just can't fit my program into 253 bytes...

What algorithm do you recommend to use? I chose Bubble cause it seemed like it would be very simple to code

already did :)

My head hurts :D

a ye!

le weed! :D

When I started playing I thought that I was saving the guy... but it turns out I was a delivery drone :D

It is the simplest interpretation of the theme but it is also incredibly fun! I love how you iterated on the idea of delivering the object to the goal. Bigger guy, more guys, MORE GUYS :D

Good level design!

If you could also play our game, that would be awesome!

Yay! I beat it!

It reminds me of portal a little bit. Solid puzzle design. Small rooms but a lot of different possibilities.

 Good job!

If you could also play our game, that would be awesome!

It would've been nice to play through smaller levels first of making sub parts to understand how it all works but I guess you ran into time problems!

The plan was to gradually unlock more recepies as you play but we couldn't make it in time. I agree that it would've been a lot more digestible this way. 

Thanks for playing! 

Holy cow! You made this in 48 hours?! You game has an atmosphere stronger then games made outside of game jams! You can make a full game just with these assets and publish it on Steam.

This certainly one of the top games in this jam! Amazing!

______________________________________________________________ 

If you could also play our game, that would be awesome!

That is an interesting idea but it would've been so much better if you could see the entire play-field. A couple of small levels that fit in one screen. I couldn't beat it but I still ike it!

Good job!

Nice played it to the end! Very stylish game! I love how calm and simple it is

Did you draw all sprites on paper and then took pictures of them? 

______________________________________________________________

If you could also play our game, that would be awesome!

Couldn't run it

No, it's good! Just hard enough 

Wow that was surprisingly hard! Couldn't beat the "L" shaped level. Challenging, simple and enjoyable!

______________________________________________________________

If you could also play our game, that would be awesome!

oh... sorry about that

Thank you! The belt extension was available at first, but it caused a lot of bugs, so we removed it. And for the reverse thing... We have the code that checks for "impossible" rotations and disables the factory if they were found. But we decided that it would be more fun, to let players still play the game even if they messed up the connections. The game is hard on it's own. 

Thank you for your review I'll play your game too later

Nice puzzle game! It would be better if you could see the entire level at all once so that you could plan ahead your moves. And the mouse buttons controls are strange couldn't get used to it for a while.

Other than that a very good game! Congrats! 

That was fun for a few minutes!

I wish the enemies wouldn't spawn on top of my peeps and some gameplay variety!

The game looks very simplistic, in a good way!

Good job!

Doesn't fit the theme

Cool concept! That would be more fun if i'd play it in coop with an actual player.

You should try to expand it and add more gameplay variety!

Good job

Very meh
