User reviews & Ratings

I just finished all the levels in *Human Resource Machine*. I definitely recommend this game, but with one important disclaimer: it probably isn't for everyone. If you enjoy mathematics, programming, or automation, you'll likely have a great time with it. If not, it might end up being more frustrating than fun. What I found especially interesting and exciting about the game is that it doesn't just cover basic concepts like `if-else` statements and loops. It also introduces lower-level programming concepts such as pointers and linked lists in a surprisingly accessible way. The UI is excellent, and some of the puzzles are genuinely challenging. For me, the hardest level was **Prime Factor**. It took me more than two hours to finally beat it, but the sense of achievement afterwards was incredible. My biggest complaint, however, is the execution speed. Even when running at full speed, programs with a large number of steps can still take a long time to finish. There were many situations where I already knew the earlier part of my solution was correct and only needed to debug the later sections, but every time I had to sit through the entire program slowly executing the previous steps before I could test the part I wanted to fix. That waiting time added up and made debugging feel unnecessarily tedious. As for optimization, I think the game could have included another challenge category based on **floor efficiency**. Besides optimizing for instruction count and execution speed, it would be interesting if players were also encouraged to complete levels using a limited amount of floor space or meet a target floor-space requirement. I think that would add another layer of strategy and significantly increase the replay value of the game.
Basically the opposite of the real world we are living in: What if humans made all programming instead of the machines? So yeah, you basically command these little human people to execute some commands. The game starts off easy and simple to understand, but gets way more complex and tough as you move on to later levels. Luckily, you can literally copy-paste the solutions to the game. Seriously, you can copy a specific text string from a txt file and paste it directly into the game to solve a level. But that's cheating haha, you wouldn't do that, right? Haha. But yeah, I'll play anything from [url=https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/TomorrowCorporation]Tomorrow Corporation . I love their artstyle, and recognised this game as one of theirs just by looking at the store's banner picture. And I love their weird silly stories and worlds :D Let the humans replace the machines!
