#.NET FOR SPACECHEM UPDATE#
In March 2011, Barth stated the possibility of making expansion packs to SpaceChem and adding a free update and editor which would allow users to create their own levels which could then be shared to other users, with the best ones being picked out by Zachtronics to be published and these were released on April 29 as the Shareholders' Update. Newer games also feature support for user-created puzzles. This gives a type of competitiveness to the game for players to find ways to optimize their solutions and improve their relative scores. These stats are given with histograms from other players, including their friends via the game's storefront, that have also completed that puzzle. Atop their solution, the player is shown statistics related to their solution which relate to some efficiency - how fast their solution completed the puzzle, how few parts they used, and the like. These games, including SpaceChem, Infinifactory, and Opus Magnum, feature multiple puzzles that are open ended in solution as long as the player can make the required output, the game considers that puzzle solved and allows the player to access the next puzzle. Zachtronics' games have generally been focused around engineering puzzle games, designing machines or the equivalent to take input and make output these are generally part of the broader class of programming games.
