They're bikeshedding pretty hard, making their own language for the simulation. You can access the unstable branch through steam, it was getting fairly regular updates last I checked.

is there anything interesting in the unstable branch??

also lmfao bikeshedding a custom language is EXACTLY what i would expect from the dev of that kinda nerd game. feels like a good sign tbh

Last I checked there's some rebalancing that looks pretty good, but the real advantage from the custom language is a huge performance boost.

I think its called yakshaving when you actually do it. Bikeshedding is discussing stuff that doesn't matter to avoid tlaking about the hard stuff
