Player Feedback
Players have expressed their love for the game, citing its ability to capture the essence of programming.
Exapunks and TIS-100 were a huge influence on my career trajectory. I was always scared of assembly and low level stuff as a kid / college student, who mostly was trying to learn from random sites that assumed a lot of CS background.
Others have noted the game’s impact on their approach to problem-solving.
My biggest surprise from playing EXAPUNKS is how futile it is to try and pre-optimize a solution. I had to remind myself time and again to solve the puzzle first, then try and try and optimize it.
Conclusion
Exapunks is a game that has left a lasting impact on its players, teaching them valuable programming concepts and influencing their career trajectory.
