• Silicon Zeroes 1.2: User-Generated Puzzle Edition! - 31 October 2017

  The weekly update is out, with one big addition! Highlight: User-created puzzle support is in! Full documentation here. Features: Added cow grafitti. Bugfixes: Secret puzzles can now trigger Ne Plus Ultra. Extremely large Numbers can no longer be stolen from the Credits. This release is something of a beta for user-created puzzles; I have plans for much more, including Steam Workshop and leaderboard support. If there’s anything you’re particularly interested in, now’s your chance to ask!

• Silicon Zeroes 1.1.3! - 16 October 2017

  This week is a smaller update; mostly catching up on bugfixes and smaller tweaks, as promised. Features Tweaked a few puzzles’ ideals and tick limits, the latter upward. Colored disconnected modules red on the minimap, to help finding isolated ones. Clarified ‘Cows’… so to speak. OS X uses shift-(cmd-)-z for redo, instead of (cmd-)y. SFX for opening/hiding the puzzle description & minimap. Bugfixes The steam leaderboards’ x-axes should be much clearer. Non-US keyboards should have working/reasonable hotkeys. The ‘Faux-Reg’ achievements will now trigger immediately after beating the puzzle, instead of one puzzle later. ‘Maze’ displays its tick limit in the description. ‘Finale’’s ideal is beatable, again. Secrets no longer missing a perfect sparkle. It’s coming up on a month since release, and most of the low-hanging fruit for fixes and improvements are cleared up. The remaining projects…

• Silicon Zeroes 1.1.2 released! - 9 October 2017

  This was supposed to be a small release revising areas where people were getting stuck. Instead, I ended up gutting and reworking most of a board. Oops! Highlights: Board 3 (’High Speed’) revised and reworked. Four new puzzles (’Clock’, ’Maze’, ‘Back’, and ‘Splitcount’) added; some uninteresting (’Delay Write’, ‘Stages’) removed; various other fixes and reorderings. If you were stuck here, now’s a good chance to give the board another shot! New ‘Hard’ puzzle: ‘Cows’, on board 1. Those who want to get going fast can skip the entire rest of the board, just by beating this puzzle. Everyone likes a challenge, right? Features: 'Ideal’ renamed to ‘Goal’, to reduce confusion when getting better solutions than the ‘ideal’. Mousing the bottom-left of modules works as soon as Delay is introduced, rather than only being enabled once the auto-clock is unlocked. Added a guide to resizing the game wh…

• Silicon Zeroes 1.1.1 now live! - 2 October 2017

  Our second weekly update is now live on almost* all platforms! Highlights: Linux support is now live!

Features: Ideals for some late-game puzzles have been adjusted to be more challenging. Screenshake has been cut to 30%. Arithmetic on space characters is consistent with other letters. Odds and Divide have had their time limi…

• Silicon Zeroes 1.1.0 is out! - 25 September 2017

  As promised, Silicon Zeroes’ first feature patch is out today! Highlights: Steam leaderboard support! Mock your friends for their inferior solutions, or compete with the rest of the world! New ‘easy’ puzzle “Fastcount”, in ‘The CPU’. New ‘hard’ puzzle “Odds”, in ‘Asides’. New ‘nightmare’ puzzle “Parallac”, in ‘Sam’. New achievement: “Fame: Beat board 2.” New achievement: “Three More Things…: Beat Faux-Reg variants 1, 2, and 3.” Features: New animation for beating and unlocking puzzles. Opcode selectors upgrade in a more intuitive and consistent way when transferred between puzzles. Module scoring no longer counts ‘duplicate’ Number modules. Wire coloring for registers and selectors now works in a hopefully more useful way. The game defaults to fullscreen on launch. Screenshake is halved at lower resolutions. Play/pause/ff hotkeys changed to “p” in OS X, to not conflict with space-clicki…
