The year is 1997. You used to be a hacker, but now you have the phage. You made a deal: one hack, one dose. There’s nothing left to lose… except your life.
EXAPUNKS is the latest open-ended puzzle game from Zachtronics, the creators of Opus Magnum, SHENZHEN I/O, TIS-100, and more.

UPDATE: More Early Access bug fixes

Today's update includes the following changes:

Fixed a bug where you could use M in global mode to communicate across non-existent links, like in the "modem" puzzles. This will invalidate some players' solutions to these puzzles, so the completion flags, leaderboards, and histograms for them have been reset.
Fixed a bug where you could freeze the game in the last "modem" puzzle.
Added support for directly entering the test run number into the test run field.
Fixed a crash when deleting the files for custom puzzles outside of the game.
Fixed a bug where puzzles uploaded to Steam Workshop would use a different random seed than when they were created. You will need to re-upload your existing puzzles to Steam Workshop to get this fix.
Improved the rendering of diagonal text.
Added the ability to turn on top and tenth percentiles at the same time, and made it so that they sort with the rest of the leaderboard scores.
Added an error to the Redshift when reading from GP or writing to CI.
Fixed a bug where the Redshift's noise channel would sometimes cut out.
Fixed a bug where the game's resolution in windowed mode would be reset every time the game was restarted.
Fixed a bug where you could create more EXAs than there was room for in the player's host.
Fixed a bug where ADDI M F X and ADDI F M X had different behaviors when holding a file with the file cursor at the end of the file.
Fixed a bug on Mac and Linux where the framerate would sometimes go far beyond 60 FPS when the window was minimized or unfocused.
Fixed a small usability issue where held files and unheld files wrapped at different widths, making it difficult to compare the two states.
