[ 2019-03-19 09:38:12 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hi Everyone! So thrilled and grateful for the positive feedback we've been getting on the game - we never expected it would gain such a following. We've been working around the clock to add tons of new features asked for by the community and lots of stability improvements, all outlined below!
- Free DLC section added with levels by famous mathematicians like James Tanton and James Grime!
- Tons of changes under the hood for vastly improved performance and responsiveness, - bottom to top refactoring plus lots and lots of bug fixes
- Ability to create and play community levels without beating the game.
- Community level system completely overhauled, now runs on Math.js:: this means levels can be far more sophisticated (i.e. complex numbers) with less programming and more intuitive syntax. Also far more stable and safer.
- Ability to copy formula history to the clipboard (by popular demand steamhappy)
- More seamless Wolfram alpha integration
- More intuitive menu design
- Lots of other subtle improvements and optimizations.
- Better help resources, including a new User Guide

The Devil's Calculator Linux [359.91 M]
An evil calculator has its normal arithmetic operators replaced with sadistically obscure functions. Using logic and a bit of algebra, you must work backwards to interpolate and use these corrupted operators to compute the 'number of the beast', 666, in order to purge the calculator of its demons and continue on. Non-profit and open-source, The Devil's Calculator is a highly original indie game that's as addicting as it is educational. Accessible to numberphiles and math novices alike, the first 20+ levels are 100% free to play and enjoy in the game's Demo.
Each level has you decipher the function of a mysterious operator and use it to calculate the number of the beast to progress. The game features advanced graphing mechanics and access to various resources to help you interpolate and solve the innovative and creative function level design. As you progress in the game, players unlock the ability to create their own levels and play challenges others have created - including free DLC levels crafted by the game's creators, educators and mathematicians. With hand drawn artwork and a charming story, the Devil's Calculator is an addicting and gratifying puzzle experience.
