I remember playing this a while ago using a friends shared library and enjoying it. This was to a small degree as I hadn't really dabbled in Lua scripting that much. After a short while I forgot about the game. Eventually I remembered the fun I had whilst messing around. I bought the game for myself and I don't regret in any way at all. Despite Lua's limited capabilities outside of certain uses, I believe that Lua was the best choice for this game. I don't even consider this a game at all; it's a development platform for people to express themselves with nostalgia and programming. Some of the projects I've seen made on this game are incredible, a level I hope to reach one day. Overall, this game is a 100% recommendation for anyone even slightly considering getting into programming. A solid 9.5/10.

I wish there was Python. You get Lua instead. But y'know what, it'll do. It'll do. Lua is quite good as well. I'd want some areas to get polished here and there though, in regards to the physical/exterior aspects of decorating and building your gadgets. The coding part of the game is quite good, no complains there. The workshop concept was a genius thing to implement. It's like attending irl hackerspaces but you have the freedom to take copies of peoples work, improve upon them or just take apart and learn. Great to use this game for prototypes before moving onto real hardware, or great for beginners to dip their toes in and see if they wanna level up their programming hobby to the next level (migrating from PC only code, to physical, some day).
