    We made a book! It's called ZACH-LIKE, and it's filled with design documents from all of our games (including the ones we never finished), and it's 400 pages long. If you're interested, here's a link to the Kickstarter: kickstarter.com/projects/18122…

    He didn't balk at our use of base-10, but was disappointed to learn we didn't differentiate between positive and negative zero in TIS-100.

    A highlight of the weekend having brunch and watching Zach Barth explaining @zachtronics programming games to Donald Knuth.

    Someone emailed me asking about the design decisions that went into our programming languages for TIS-100, SHENZHEN I/O, and EXAPUNKS. I figure some of you might be interested in it too, so here it is in the worst format possible: a Twitter thread!

    Fun fact! The computer in the Last Call BBS trailer isn't 3D rendered, it's an actual physical model we 3D printed and painted. Here's the footage for the stop-motion sequence at the end before it was cleaned up.
