More games like this?

I've played pretty much every programming game I can find using the "games like this" Steam feature. Are there any hidden gems I should know about? Cheers!

Well its hard to know which ones you have played or not without a list, but in terms of games outside of steam, untrusted and microcorruption are two online games.

In case you haven't done so already, it is also worth checking out: www.codingame.com.
It supports a huge number of real programming languages.
Though the puzzles are a bit more standard, they are still fun.

Hrmm, I'll assume you've played Zachtronics' Shenzen and TIS-100.

SpaceChem and Infinifactory, by Zachtronics, as well as Prime Mover and Octopticom, all scratch similar itches, albeit more abstractly.

And I just found BitBurner, a free browser based hacking programming incremental game, uses javascript although I think one guy somehow made an interface to lua...

MHRD; though at least one review compared it to NAND 2 Tetris negatively, I thought it was pretty nice.

Could also check out Nite Team 4. Good bit of fun, but its more network intrusion and less programming / scripting. (though they may add scripts in the future maybe? looks like they have placeholders for it.)

Wait, where's the "games like this" feature? Steam has been really bad at suggesting which games are similar to games I own. I usually Google "games like [game]". I frequently end up on the 50gameslike site. It's a bit hit-or-miss but you'll find some similar games worth checking out.

Anyway, other Zach-like games I've played are Silicon Zeroes and Human Resource Machine. Two more I have on my wishlist are 7 Billion Humans and God is a Cube: Programming Robot Cubes.

On the store page. "More like this", actually.

If you're not married to assembly and ok with higher level languages, hackmud is kind of similar. It's in JS tho.

It doesn't seem all that similar tbh... What kind of programming are you doing in this?

It's JavaScipt. Search github for hackmud and you can see repos of peoples scripts. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=hackmud+site%3Agithub.com&t=ffab&ia=web
