Since the game's forum barely has a few threads and doesn't seem to be visited, let me ask you here:

How many levels are there? In the previous Zachtronics programming games, you had at least a rough indication how far you were in the game, but not here.

Also, does anyonw know if there are any planned additional levels/campaigns, like for Infinifactory and TIS?

Thanks.

Think it was 30, no clue if more will be added.

Cool, thanks.

This game is fun! Better than TIS.

So far SpaceChem then Shenzhen then Infinifactory then TIS-100, but all were extremely fun. Haven't tried Opus Magnum yet.

I'm bad at all these games sadly and as such haven't finished any. Really enjoyable though. TIS-100 is great but required a lot more effort to get into. My favourite is Infinifactory and the card game in Shenzen. ;)
I really should buy Opus Magnum sometime.
The only annoying thing in Shenzhen now is some puzzle having problems plcing all the wires. I wish the wire grid was smaller.
Ugh, the wiring gets ugly at times. Gives spaghetti code a new meaning.
Sorry to bump this, but just a quick question.

I'm on what appears to be the last level now (The Big One), however this post
http://www.zachtronics.com/firmware-update-3/
Suggests there are 10 more puzzles. Are these 10 included on GOG? Are they part of the 30 levels, or are they extra ones that will get unlocked after I finish the last one?

The ConceptMAIL transcripts show... 5 assignements after The Big One. While this one
https://www.reddit.com/r/shenzhenIO/comments/5pev64/bonus_campaign_top_list/
Shows 10 levels that have different names.

Could someone expalain please?

After the Big One, a new "area" will open up with 10 more. LOGIC BOARD is the last.

Those 10 are the extra ones added by the update, right? Originally Big One was last?

Sorry, I have no clue. I don't see anything in the link you provided stating when 1.3 came out; maybe it came out before the game was released on gog. I bought it on the day it was released, and noticed no significant changes as I went through the game. I looked at it just before answering your question, and it still looks the same. A quick count shows me 43 uniquely named .puzzle solutions in my save dir, not 30, so interpret that as you like.

edit: as I mentioned in this empty thread, there was some text at the end of the game that implied there might be more. At the time, I verified that there were no new puzzles, apparently by looking in <game dir>Content/descriptions. That last message seems to have changed since then, but I am still pretty sure I solved all the included puzzles.

1.3 cameout Nov 11 2016.

Anyway since all previous Zachtronics games had all levels included on GOG I assume this does too. Just don't want to miss any content.

In case anyone else is wondering: Yes the 10 extra levels after the Big One are the ones added by the update.
