While the developers have tapered off and leave a lot to be desired in the balance department of veteran players versus new players (not talking code knowledge here, simply stockpiles of infinite resources), this game is a gem. I learned a lot and learn a lot every time I pick it up and i've pretty much done nothing but lose to other players. The game natively supports javascript, but you can use pretty much anything you want to with a little elbow grease; from python to rust to kotlin and more. The game will present to you very interesting challenges from a programming perspective that don't seem too hard to solve until you realize that you are limited on computing and memory resources and given a tickrate to work with.

One of my favorite games of all time.

One big thing to note; the web browser performs significantly better than the steam client.
