can we have an opus magnum thread? i'm about halfway through the game. i'm fucking loving this, it satisfies so much of my autism. i'm shit at building contraptions still, but goddamn if it ain't nice. any other rube goldberg games?

Ethan Wright
gonna post a few more
Benjamin Walker
Factorio for sure
Adrian Bailey
Owen Watson
It's much easier than a lot of other Zachtronics games so it's a great introduction. I still have some of my solutions saved from when it came out.
James Clark
Michael Reyes
fuck beat me to it
Nathaniel Campbell
Of all of the Zachtronics games I have played Opus Magnum is my least favorite. It's still good though.
Carson Martinez
that kind of made me shit myself
Henry Jenkins
Jewish setups are always the most unsatisfying, which is why I love them.
Caleb Johnson
Landon Clark
Why all the spins at the end?

>Taking a full 3 Salts off when you only need to take 1 off
This is heresy.
Ethan Young
The outer ring needs to be fully bonded together.
Nicholas Hill
sorry i'm retarded ;_;
needs to complete the bonds
Brandon Harris
>sorry i'm retarded
You are forgiven, so long as you know your mistakes.
Aaron Harris
What's better? Opus Magnum or Molek Syntez?
Sebastian Peterson
I don't have any good recs but I'm gonna post my own retarded solutions because I never got to post in a Magnum Opus thread and I think its fun to compare solutions, enjoy op

> not optimizing for speed/throughput
PATHETIC.
Caleb Foster
Looks like they fixed the pivots. Maybe I'll pick it up now.
Connor Cox
>Bob I tell you I can optimize your factory and get your efficiency up 500%
>all I need is a building 5x the size of the one you have now
throughput/size is the king combo
Kevin Lewis
the chad swing.
Camden Edwards
What do you mean, fixed the pivots? They haven't changed how rotation works to my memory. Are you just a brainlet perhaps?
Christopher Gray
Infinifactory is better
This solution sucks, but it looks cool
Austin Hughes
SWANG N BANG BABY
Levi Russell
I hate this puzzle, it makes me feel wasteful.
Oliver Watson
i retried after the first comment. it's not too bad right ;_;
Camden Morales
Molek Syntez sucks. I got a refund. It's the worst Zachtronics game by far.
Levi Bennett
They weren't centered last I saw. They were off by a pixel or so. It was fucking chaos and I couldn't deal.
Zachary Perry
That does sound awful, never ran into issues though.
William Hughes
this
Gavin Roberts
What's so bad about it?
Noah Morris
It just does everything the other games do except worse. There's also no story, and it looks like shit, too. I wish Zach would make a sequel to SpaceChem or Shenzhen. The games are way more interesting when you can connect separate modules together and the space is limited
Asher Lee
Because it's neither EXTREMELY space-limited (TIS-100, Shenzhen, Spacechem) nor truly free for absurd optimization (Opus Magnum). It's an uncomfortable place in between.

Here's a fun challenge:
Curious Lipstick with full throughput. As in both salt outputs being pulled from once every two steps.
Don't actually do it, it's hell.
