For those who don't know -- while Zachtronics is no longer making games, Zach Barth is still active now under the company Coincidence Games. They just game out with a spacecraft engineering puzzle game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2536720/UVS_Nirmana/?cura... .

thank you, buying both their games. i'm a big fan of his entire series. i'd just assumed he was gone off the scene there's also ARGs hidden in all of them, not sure if you're all aware of that

well args in his original games, not sure about the new ones

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Well, he invented both the parent and the cousin of Minecraft.

What's that referring to? I meant Infiniminer, I'm not too familiar with his other work.

Infiniminer is the "parent" of Minecraft, because Notch made the latter after he was inspired by the source-leak of the former to port the code from C# to Java.

Infinifactory is the "cousin" of Minecraft, because it was built using Infiniminer's engine directly by Zach.
