Comet 64

Comet 64 has a nice retro vibe, and cracking the coding puzzles was a fun way to spend time. It’s a clever and challenging game. I think it might be a bit too tough if you don’t have any coding background or if logical thinking isn’t your strong suit. The coding language used in the game is a bit assembly-ish, but it’s actually something different and simpler. Still, I think it gives you a taste of how assembly logic works. In my opionion the game could use a little polish in some areas, and maybe some sort of beginner-friendly option for those who don't understand programming well. But for a small indie game, this was an excellent find!

NOPE! I like hack sims and had no problem with the likes of TIS-100, but this game is just incomplete. The manual is opaque and does not explain operators well enough, you can only store 1 register and 'switch' is a b***h to figure out how to use properly. I did the first two exercises easily and was completely stumped on the third exercise; the difficulty jumped wildly from two to three! Frustrated, I turned to ChatGPT and uploaded the game manual. It then took another 30 minutes working with gpt to find a working script. Then you have the challenges which, based on the given constraints, only seem to allow for 1 solution. It then becomes a crazy game of guessing what the devs intended. Not worth the $5 I paid for it. Heh, this is fun. Here is a "review" from GPT: (Addendum from ChatGPT, who was recruited to help solve the third challenge): As an AI trained on code, logic, and thousands of game manuals, I can confirm this game offers neither consistent teaching nor reasonable pro...
