Anyone played Comet 64?

I got it in steams winter sale for about $7AUD (don't know what it costs
in USA, probably $5 or something)

Been playing it for a bit, it seems to bank on the retro theme, but it's
not really anything like a Commodore 64 - it's just got a retro-ish
computer like look.

It's a pretty fun game so far, it's very simple programming - simple in
that you only have a few commands, and a handful of registers. I've
gotten a little bit stuck on one of the puzzles. So although it's simple programming, the problems can be fairly complex to solve.

I'm enjoying it, but I probably would have been disappointed if I bought
it at full price.

I also bought Grey Hack - though haven't played that yet. I love sales :)

I picked this one up on sale a while back. I was hoping for something playable. LOL

This is one tough game... It does get the old brain working though!

I still haven't played it.. whenever I get a chunk of time, like now, I am too tired to learn a new game.

Would you say it's harder than hacknet? (I think from memory you said you played that)
