Tomorrow Corporation’s 7 Billion Humans is out now

I’m not a lot of a programmer however I do like when Zachlikes costume the logic as e.g. making a pretty machine, so I’m particularly happy that the newest from Tomorrow Corporation remakes programming as one thing I’m intimately accustomed to: bossing individuals round. 7 Billion Humans, the follow-up to their 2015 game Human Resource Machine, has simply launched. It has us program a parallel laptop which is manufactured from little individuals shuffling round. I believe I shall start my reign of computational terror by yelling at then firing the most important integer on my first day, simply to point out them I can and can.

“Where Human Resource Machine was based on Assembly and executed by a single worker, 7 Billion Humans has an all new language that lots of workers can all execute at the same time,” Tomorrow Corporation say. I nod and smile politely.

“Incomprehensible cutscenes!” they add. “You will be delighted and bewildered.” Ah, the state during which I operate greatest. I shall be the perfect programmer.

I’m advised the game has sixty-odd puzzles to unravel. Now… I assume I simply shout into my microphone to intimidate the individuals and make them do the numbers I need?

PEOPLE! NUMBERS! NOW! ONLY THE GOOD ONES.

7 Billion Humans is out now for £11.39/€12.49/$14.99. It’s out there by means of Steam, GOG, the Humble Store (getting a Steam key), and its site (each with a Steam key and DRM-free).
