About 1-DC
TO BE CLEAR: YOU NEED TO BE SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR WITH HOW PROGRAMMING WORKS IN ORDER TO ENJOY THIS GAME.
1-DC is an open-ended programming puzzle game (a "zach-like"), featuring a fictional low-level programming language. There are only three base commands; the rest depends on the commands' parameters (somewhat like SIC-1). This challenges the player to think in abstract and minimal terms.How can you calculate a sine wave with only two variables? That's up to you to figure out.Features:
- 32 base levels;
- 16 bonus levels, featuring negative numbers and a third variable slot;
- A commands par in each level that you can optimize for;
- 12 achievements, ranging from tedious to confusing;
- A simple level editor, with more variable slots and a greater range of values
- Voicelogs left by your boss, to inform you about his search for your missing wife.
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
* I bought the game on Itch and completed it there, before it was published on Steam. This game is great. The title is a bit of a clickbait, but it's still a very unique programming experience. The true fun lies in not just solving the levels, but trying to optimise them. Even more fun is trying to cheat the inputs to get an impossible score. Recommended even for beginner programmers.
