I remember when I bought this game in 2021. A key part of that memory involves the fact that, at that time, I was actually able to, you know, play the game. (For a few hours. I think I snagged it during a sale, tried it out for a bit, and then planned on playing it more substantially later.)

Now. in 2022, I attempt to start the game up. I discover that there are now about 10 layers of Epic Games garbage retrofitted to the game; and so in addition to taking forever to launch, it never gets past the very first "Loading" screen. I literally can't even make it to the main menu. I've done all the usual troubleshooting steps, and nothing works. It's just completely effing broken.

Add to that the various other controversial changes apparently done to the game in the time since the developers/publishers sold their souls to Epic Games (these changes are well-documented by others), and the only message I can reasonably say I'm getting from the people behind this game is a giant middle finger.

I'm currently attempting to get a refund, since I bought the game under a particular understanding, and the game has been completely changed in such a way that it no longer reflects the buying decision I originally made at all. (For example: when I bought it, I did so on the understanding that I would be able to, like, you know, play the game, or at least even get to the main menu. And while this was possible at the time I paid for the game, it's no longer possible. Not being able to play the game is one fairly significant factor that would generally tend to make me not want to spend money on a game and buy it.)

If the developers/publishers are going to take away my ability to play the game I paid for, then I think it's only fair that I be allowed to take away the money that I gave them, in good faith, on the understanding that I'd be able to effing play the damn thing in the first place.

UPDATE:

For anyone who runs into the same problem I did: After an inane amount of time wasted troubleshooting this stupid problem, I have concluded that the infinite loading screen is, in fact, actually just Epic Games's intuitive way of informing you that you need to link your Epic Games account to your Steam account in order for the game to load. Their game overlay system is apparently broken or ♥♥♥♥♥♥ or whatever, and so it just doesn't bother to show up and inform you of what the hell you need to actually do. This is genius-level game design. Also, if you weren't able to figure out that "infinite loading screen means I need to link my accounts", then you are probably an idiot who will be yelled at by other, definitely much smarter, people for not being able to figure out such an obvious thing yourself.

Does this tool generally work at what it's meant to do? Yeah. But it's got issues.

The single biggest issue with this tool is the constant background CPU utilization; it's simply excessive. On my machine, while the Borderless Gaming tool is ostensibly "idling" in the background, its process actually cycles between using roughly 100% of one CPU core for ~3 seconds, then goes idle for ~3 seconds, and then repeats, without end. So, whatever methodology is being used to do the window detection stuff, it's clearly too heavyweight to realistically justify itself.

And then to add to the above, the developer of this tool has effectively abandoned it since mid-2017. So improvements are highly unlikely to ever happen. Oh and did I mention that this $4 offering on Steam can be obtained for free, as it's an open source project hosted on GitHub? Yeah...

I would highly recommend that potential users of this tool (a) download it directly from the project's website instead of paying for it on Steam, particularly given that it contains no actual Steam integration, and in fact works best in isolation from Steam; and (b) consider an alternative tool for the job instead of this one.

Yet another excellent programming-style game from Zachtronics!

One of the few things I find a tad annoying about these games (TIS-100, SHENZHEN I/O, EXAPUNKS) is that they aren't more realistic in terms of assembly programming. There are often clever optimizations I just know I could do with real binary arithmetic, or a proper flags register, or different clock timings for different instructions, etc. But it's still a ton of fun and the histograms provide a strong incentive to optimize better than your friends and everyone else.

Also: I've spent an absolutely shameful amount of time in the solitaire minigame.

There's an extremely common crash-to-desktop bug in this game that effectively ruins the entire multiplayer mode. It's been known about and discussed literally since the day the game was released on PC, over a month ago.

Has the developer bothered to issue an official acknowledgment or patch for this problem? Nope.

And actually, have they released a single patch of any kind to fix other minor bugs or do literally anything in the month since the game has been out? Nope.

That's some bottom-tier developer support right there, folks.

Here's a short list of discussion threads about this one particular issue, arranged chronologically and spanning back to January 31 (the very day the PC version was released):

Fantastic. I played this game all the way through its closed alpha/beta stages through to its release. (None of my hours show up on the Steam version, sadly.)
