EXAPUNKS is the latest open-ended puzzle game from Zachtronics, the creators of Opus Magnum, SHENZHEN I/O, TIS-100, and more.

I received it as a gift and started playing and … I have questions. I am playing it on Ubuntu, and it’s working great. I don’t login anywhere else though so I’m hoping I can find people to talk to about it on Lemmy.

Cheers if you have played and can help. Sorry to bother otherwise.

Questions!

  1. How does it know who my steam friends are? Is that just an api or something?

  2. What are size, cycles and activity? It shows me these things but I can’t find an explanation.

Thanks!

    I don’t think it has any effect on the story. It’s just for bragging rights. Your friend gets to say they’re a more efficient programmer with a more elegant design.
