  • Insanely dedicated and incredible puzzle designer who has works I've previously played, now has released (the first?) standalone game on steam, a game about temperature equalization. World 6 finally shows all the ways pistons became cursed. Oh also World 7 teaser.

    Can we just talk about the fact that the developer not only had to think about every tiny edgecase and possibility, but also had to program it?
    Playing this game requires a lot of brain power, but developing it… are we *sure* Einstein died?

      @@zackbuildit88 I can imagine that a turn is divided into as many logical “ticks” as the game needs to get to a steady state, and then each tick is split into several passes (checking for heat dissipation adjacencies, for piston moves, etc). I think checking for the different kinds of block borders might be time consuming, and defining interactions between, say, sticky blocks, static blocks, and pistons would make it more complex.

    So i think i understood how the piston block works. It has 2 parts: the box, and the head. The head can either be inside the box, making space for 1 block inside the piston, or on the edge of it, pushing blocks out of itself. And i suppose the dev wanted it to be a gas/liquid based piston because if you apply heat to it the gas/liquid expands and creates more pressure, which is alsk the reason why the piston generates heat when you push blocks into it when it is in its extended state, simulating gas compression, basically less volume = more pressure, more pressure = more temperature. I am guessing pulling blocks from it cools the piston, which can be checked in level 6-6 (edit: or not, you'd need the piston to be stationary for you to push the hook out of the piston, and also you would need to already have it pushed into the piston)
    As for thermodynamics of it, it still kinda weirds me out, i am not sure if the block gives temperature to the box when it's inside, or to the head. Also you can see the head of the piston is different across different levels, sometimes its sticky, sometimes its nonconductive. And that's about it.
    Man, it's hard to explain without illustrating
    Edit 2: just hit the 45 minutes mark, yeah, looks like the head is the conductive part of the piston
    Edit 3: forgot to mention that it seems to have a limit of blocks it can push from the heat it gets after compression, because in level 6-19 you can see it not pushing the 4 blocks back, but in level 6-12 it pushed 2 blocks and the demon back, so i'd guess the limit is like 3 or 4 blocks? Correction: probably 4 because of lvl 6-7, unless glass doesn't have "mass" which would allow the piston to push unlimited amount of glass and explain why it can't push 4 blocks on level 6-19
    Edit 4: i am confused why it does not push you out after you, the demon explicitly, push the head inside the piston. (Still on lvl 6-19)
    Edit 5: if 3rd edit's correction about mass is correct, it would dismiss edit 4's confusion because the piston is made of glass in level 6-19.
    Edit 6: nvm, heat generated in lvl 6-19 dissipates before the piston activates because the piston is made of glass

    • @adrryl5566
      @adrryl5566 2 дня назад +1

      In level 6-19 the piston doesn't push back the blocks because it is made of glass so it doesn't retain the heat when the head is pushed in

    • @daviustariksson5682
      @daviustariksson5682 День назад +2

      It can push 4 blocks back, it has no limit.
      It has an arrow, if it points out, it's extended, and can only contract, if it points in it's contracted, and can only expand. So arrow in + cold does nothing, and arrow out + hot does nothing.
      If the surface of the piston block is conducted, it can conduct to the block inside, and is the only side that connects.
      I would love if you said what are the doubts you have so I can explain them, the piston seems fascinating to me.​@@kengored_alt

    Come on most of the varying piston behaviour is clearly shown to the player.
    The 'head' of the piston is either in, at the back wall of the piston, or out, at the front entrance of the piston; that head has a wall type like any other block, connecting it to other things accordingly (I think we've only seen insulated and conductive, not sticky)
    Not visibly obvious: The internal side walls of the piston are insulated.

      The single number is the actual "location" of the level. When you exit the level, that's where you will exit. Including if you are already inside another level.
      The two number levels are "links". 6-12 will take you to "world 6, level 12", no matter where that is in relation to your current position/level stack, and when you exit, you will exit at level "12" in world 6.

    somewhat disappointed that you weren't very attentive when it comes to how the pistons look. it's been foreshadowed this whole time that pistons could do all these cursed things by the black line that shows up on every piston before, the same black line as insulation- this game is very consistent with the language of borders
