Noita is a game based around the concept of a chemistry engine running at the pixel level. It uses a custom rules engine written in C++.

It's one of the more interesting games I have ever played.

Noita is an amazingly complex game, from the alchemy reactions, to the cryptographic secrets [1], to the wand building mechanic -- which is itself like a small programming language.

Here is someone using a (really complex) wand to beat the game in 2 seconds (some spoilers): https://youtu.be/YYTB5_zBANg?feature=shared&t=309

Man, I wish I was good enough after 110 hours to experience the other half of this game's content. I'm still stuck dying in Hiisi base... Still fun tho!
