To put this into perspective: The amount of time it would take to do one output (assuming the time complexity given in the description is correct) is so long that there is no possible way I can put it into perspective. Other than I guess by saying it dwarfs Skewes' number and is dwarfed by basically anything bigger than Skewes' number (googology is weird).
I saw the /s, but since Opus Magnum is Turing Complete you could actually simulate tetris within Opus Magnum. You might not be able to "play" it real time though, but you could pre program any inputs or in theory write an AI to play the simulated game.
Imagine if it turned out that when this machine completes it actually gets credit for completing the level in 1 cycle because of integer overflow. That would make everyone *so* mad...
perhaps a modified version of this design could reach pentation? Something I notice is that the second arm spends some time pulling out additional atoms (increasing the base), but increasing the base is the weakest change you can make to an expression with up-arrows compared to the height or number of arrows. Your blog has a similar but weaker design with five arms, as far as I can tell, as well, and I wonder if the sixth arm could be used to improve the number of arrows. Perhaps making the second arm could be made to serve multiple purposes (obviously it has to pull out multiple atoms each run, but 4 seems excessive to me) and the sixth could be used in tandem with it. I haven't thought this out very far, though, so I'm not sure if it's doable. Still, worth noting.
the expert missions in opus magnum do mention alchemy boxes left in storage that slowly overflowed with useless sludge. this would be one of those machines
Damn i was asking my math teacher about something and he said he didnt know if there was anything that could do it (hes actually smart, doesnt read curriculum and not understand it just repeats it so it surprised me a bit and i just guessed it actually didnt exist) but from your explaination i think it is tetration
I recognized that 7 trillion number. Went to the comment section to say something about it, and was promptly reminded that the average IQ of people who play this game is higher than me, and multiple people have pointed it out already. I am impressed :)

The sheer dedication to mathematically perfect inefficiency is legitimately impressive.
Thank god this machine exists so I don't have to feel so bad about my own inefficient designs.

Graham's number?
@@celestesimulator6539 Far too large to be an effective comparison.
@@celestesimulator6539 graham's number easily trumps anything written in up-arrow notation, let alone tetration
Tetration? Wow, I didn't know you could play Tetris in Opus Magnum! /s

absolutely terrible, thank you for sharing
positively terrifying, thank you for making this
this could be another topic for the biggieblog

Wha....
Why
How
How much time did this take you to do? How even did you think of that??
WHY???

great job
Wht 7 years and u still here
You win
FUCK I LOVE YOU
