Thanks Uni And Toast for someone fun to do today, and thanks for being along for the ride with our group uni
The Inner Workings machine secret!
So Basically this guy coded a whole ass ALU and made realm into an ARG? That’s freaking awesome. Congrats to @Toastrz and @Mrunibro
the joke is that something as useless as a calculator exists in a game about looting and shooting. The complete contrast is the silly joke.
It’s like Desert Bus , the game designed to be as little of a ‘game’ as it could possibly be.
Additionally, It can be seen as a practical joke, in the sense that it is a demonstration of how truly impractical it is to get realm objects to operate in specific ways. There is no better way to make a calculator in this game, because realm objects have no concept of “math” or “variables”, or anything you might do in a real programming language. They’re just finite state machines. They take a state, do some stuff, and if they observe a specifically defined event (e.g. low hp), they go to a different state. That’s all they are capable of. It’s why so many cool ideas for this game never become reality.
But apart from being just an april fools joke, no. This calculator has nothing to offer. It is not a step in the ARG, it is the end of the ARG.
There might be specific outputs that the calculator will react to. But there are no hints for those, just effectively random events. (e.g. it scolds you if you make it calculate ‘69’).
Repeating an extra time:
This is the end. There is no chest. The reason people thought there was one is because it got caught in the brainwaves of people trying to figure out the ARG, and stuck around somehow.
What if there were items so rare nobody has ever gotten them?

I do appreciate the lesson that i forgot most of what i learned in computer science 1
relearning signed integers hurt my sleep deprived brain
To be honest i expected that the calculator would explode and give everyone a 10 min disconnect by dividing by zero.
This was a lot of fun albeit useless glad I could help, who knew having a bee helm would matter sm lmao
Final thing I’d like to add before I go for now:
Should you for any reason be interested in “How” or “Why” the calculator operates (or does not operate), feel free to message me on discord.
I didn’t spend a long time on it because I hated making it . I could talk about it for literally hours , lol.

[ASMR] Mrunibro explains how the Inner Workings function to you on a simple mic at 2 am on a warm summer night
I have a new mic since a few weeks I no longer sound like a crazy homeless person.
I still think like one, but I dont sound like it anymore!
