oh boy that aged poorly

Not only is this project incredibly ambitious, it is well executed. Please take your time, and thanks for all your hard work.

I wish you published updates more often. Just bought early access to support your work. Good luck and waiting for more!

Holy shit, that is a good optimization that kinda proves you're in this for the long haul

Optimizations are always nice, but custom levels will be _sooo useful!_ Honestly, I care less about competing for high scores (though not having a high score lets me know that my solution is suboptimal and can be improved), but just being able to test components will mean that I won't have to manually change the inputs and see if the output is correct for the component.

Extremely excited. Had to put TC down to deal with a particularly busy time in my life, but am looking forward to picking it up again.

Same here, got to the two last levels and then i started college hahaha.

I think adding a little radio theory would enhance the game. Encoding, modulation, adc, dac, mixers, oscillators, band pass filters and perhaps even the concept of software defined radio. Also kinda funny that your game has a way better GUI thank KiCad and every other CAD program.

Wow, the speed increase looks insane

That is nice of you to think about the casual / new to architecture, I often find myself a bit lost in the campain and I sometimes feel like I am forcing my way through the levels, I wish they where some kind of " Ideal way to do it " with a few explication and maybe some irl example of usage, anyways, this update look sick I hope you find the time to finish it !

Same. I just tell myself that there is no wrong way to play the game

You're doing God's work. I love this game and the performance improvements will turn this into my new playground!

Man, I just stumbled across this game and I'm just in wild delight... I have been interested for a very long time in how a computer works at its basic, lowest level (I mean just on the logical elements "Not", "Or", "and",). I know how to make these elements out of transistors, but then ... 😨, but you're my hero, please continue in the same spirit, you're just a miracle PS I can throw off a couple of videos exactly how to do it physically (logical elements), that is, with my hands, but I'm from Russia and the videos will also be in the appropriate language 😅

Good work, anticipating another playthrough in this game!

Really fond of your vision and dedication to TC. This is becoming less and less a game and more and more a platform for a new kind of community. In a few years you will have hardware and education companies as business partners.

all that sound very promising, thank you for not giving up on this beautiful game/simulator

It's been 9 month already and no news at all. Just want to know - are you alright?

He has responded to some Steam discussions and has hearted some comments here. I also hear he is active in the Discord server.

I absolutely love this game, one of my dreams would be trying to implement a PDP-11 in the game and then bootstrapping UNIX 6th edition from the Lions' book on it

Thank you for your ongoing dedication to this fantastic CS simulator! As a newcomer to the game, I experienced a profound sense of accomplishment the first time I utilized the smallest instruction set and custom assembly codes to navigate mazes. I have a few suggestions that could enhance the game further: 1. Display level names on the campaign page. 2. Enable the ability to switch the number of bits in instructions in the gear icon, not limited to 8 bits or just bound to the bit size of the program memory. 3. Provide the option to preview all levels to understand the requirements, allowing for the design of more versatile opcodes. These improvements would contribute to an even more enjoyable and user-friendly gaming experience.

Thank you so much for the fantastic product you made!

Im waiting to buy for next patch. Take your time though its not leaving my wishlist

If you continue to develop the game, could you make regular videos about what you are currently working on and what you plan to work on in the future. I'm sure many would be interested to hear what problems you faced during development and how you solved them. Like once every 3 months.

I will pay min 100$ for the patch even though i already own the game. It can't come soon enough

Thanks for the update! Really looking forward to it!!

Oh nice! This is exciting

Soooo 4 months later. The same question where is the patch xD.

I love this game!!! waiting for new levels. I have never playded any game for so long. Thank you!

Wow, its been almost 9 months. Any updates? Really appreciate the hard work

This is the one indie project i really looking forward to be released out of early acess

I have been in love with this project for over a year but haven't beaten it yet lol Can't wait to pick it back up today

Really appreciate your work on the game.

Letting everyone know the alpha version is public on steam in the "beta" tab.

Keep at it. I have derived so much pleasure from this as early access.

It's only a matter of time before people start creating NES/SNES/Sega/Atari emulators

i want to thank you for making this wonderful game. i picked it up after taking an intro to computer architecture course for school. it's an awesome topic and i can't wait to finish up the campaign and get started on building stuff in the sandbox.

Love the game, take your time with the updates!

Dude! This is amazing! Cant wait for those simulation speeds!

Will this include new tutorials for newer levels such as CPU architecture 2?

Nice! Release when done, better than release cyberpunk style.

great job you're doing! funnily enough a few years ago i was also thinking about making a game similiar to yours but i never found the time to do it, sadly

Amazing work! This game taught me the basics of computer architecture. Finishing the game was super satisfying! However, the later programming levels became a bit tedious, having to code everything in my own horrible assembly language. Do you think there could be a way to make that experience a bit nicer? Like for example, have the campaign make you implement a specific instruction set, and then have a compiler that allows you to write more C-like code? I know I could do that myself already, but I think it would be a good direction for the campaign for newer players. I still would keep some assembly programming levels for teaching purposes though.

Love the game and your continued work on it, thanks for this video

I really can't wait for this patch :D this is an amazing game and an incredibly fun sandbox to play in, thank you for putting in so much effort to make it even better

SO stoked for this patch!

I need a development update its been to long

Big Fan already definitely would love to subscribe for mailing list to follow up updates please! I won’t miss it

While I am impatiently waiting for this, I still rather wait than try to hurry ;)

Imagine a custom level "campaign" that will teach you how to build a RISC-V architecture. This will be such a nice study tool. Really looking forward for the update.

I am so unbelievably enthusiastic about this update! This game, which has already been life-changing for me, is about to get even better!

That's is some great optimisation. I'm really interested in buying this game after watching this video.

cool! i made a general purpose architecture with 32bit fixed point complex numbers, and i can use it to plot fractals such as the mandelbrot set. would be cool to see it be faster also is there any plan to rework the verilog conversion?

@TuringCompleteGame

What exactly would you like to see improved?

Well done. This feels like a genre breaking project. The idea is gamifying learning like this is so much more attractive than the Duolingo type code games. Even though large architecture might not be possible for mobile but having a lite mobile version of 'Turing Complete' as a future project for this game might be very successful. I would pay money for that any day on my Android mobile, and I am sure others would too.

_wow_ There's optimizing, and there's _optimizing_

That insane ! merci de toujours l'entretenir !

I'm holding out for this update. Please wait a few months after factorio 2.0 and satisfactory 1.0 drop, I dont think I have enough willpower to keep a job if they all come out at once.

is there an ETA at this point? I know it is ready when it is ready, I just wanna know if we are still in SoonTM mode, or if it is a years out, months out or more like weeks out.

Godspeed!

If there are custom levels, I hope this means a custom campaign as well to pack several levels easier. It would also let level designers to put challenges in a logical order, maybe building specific components of an architecture. Transistor tutorial sounds very cool. I also hope new features include buttons. I really need to test or change parts of the architecture by poking. And maybe also tunnels, architectures sometimes get so large it bothersome to stretch a wire all around the map.

I'm so hyped for this

100% buying this after finding this video.

Fun observation: anyone that messes around with the fundamentals of computing in any way, shape or form, seems to end up writing a programming language or at least wanting to write one ;-) (I'm probably not the first one to notice this...). Quite apart from that, your reason for wanting this specialized PL makes perfect sense... keep up the great work! This game is fantastic!

So cool!

It's so nice!!!

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that! You're doing great. But I have a request, may you make 1 more section for cpu architecture?

This is so amazing. If at some point you add more explanations in the game itself, this will also be the best educational game.

wow looking forward to it... it soon is xmas!

godot? deng , thats a big project, congrats!!!

11 months without news... more on Steam...

Have you thought about having a level, or a manual entry on how assembly is converted to raw machine language via circuits? That’s a big thing I’m rather confused about because wouldn’t it require a whole other computer dedicated to converting?

Will it help my comuter download it?

What will be some of the breaking changes? I got bits and pieces from the discord, but I have a feeling that before this update is not going to be a good idea to work on custom archs if everything is just gonna break.

@suncat530

11 ай бұрын

so far, planned breaking change is size of component inputs/outputs, constants, registers, delay lines - basically everything that shows internal value on it afaik their size is gonna be the same for all bit sizes, and equal to current size of current 16bit components. But during update most of the placed components like that will be transformed into custom components that do exact same thing but with original size - but that can't be done with component factory IO, so that's where you have to leave enough space for larger components before big update

Great game!

Could I ask you what engine the game is built on, you say in the video you need to rework the engine. But you have godot in your task bar, really cool game!

Guy invented new language to make his own game run faster. Cheers!

awesome!

This is a really wonderful game! I became a software dev with limited experience not too long ago, so I'm trying to fill in the gaps as much as possible. This game has done so much for teaching me about architecture and how to design a system completely from scratch. I think something that this game could benefit from is custom level design or custom campaign tree design. beyond that, this game is amazing. I know designing it is hard, but I've been recommending it to friends and other CS-type folks and they are planning on picking it up. You are doing amazing stuff.

Can you make your own dos(Disc os) system on it now?

How do you raise improve the performance so much? I imagine technical language would be fine given your audience.

By the way, dude, please add the ability to highlight and copy text from the manual in order to use the translator normally, or add more languages, 🙃

Take your time. This "game" is already amazing. I helped my brain to finally "click" into understanding hardware. And these optimizations almost seem like fake videos! Take your time, do it right, your playerbase will be there and wait. I mean we, who are playing this are a very specifc bunch and there is nothing else that even comes close to TC.

With custom levels, and an api, this would be so good for training Alphazero type AI.

Great, I thought this game wouldn’t receive any more updates!
