    Hi thanks! Sure, certainly! I also want to eventually add some physics-based levels for fun, with like a box2D sim interacting with the circuits (with N circuit ticks = 1 box2D "ti…

    Hi, thanks! Today the game is focused on digital logic, It would be fun to put resistors, capacitors or maybe transistors, maybe as a mod, but the algorithm would be a little diffe…

    Show HN: Circuit Artist – Circuit simulator with propagation animation, rewind

    Hello, Circuit Artist is a game about drawing digital circuits as pixel art — like MS Paint, but pixels are wires and little triangles are NANDs. Hit play and the simulation runs i…

    Thanks! Yeah I got inspiration from Wireworld and Wired logic , just wanted to build a "paint" layer on top of it one day but i end up adding more and more :)

    Hello, I've just added some new changes to my circuit simulation and game and wanted to share it here. The game is open source and available in full in Github and on Steam: https:/…

    The genious leadership at prime video thought it would be a good idea to introduce adds not only on the beginning of movies but also in the middle of it, with an extra paid option …

    It's handy for non-tech-savy people, namely the elderly. It can be used for playing music: "Alexa play X", "Alexa shutdown" is all the user needs to know.

    If a cable goes down, isn't the traffic just re-routed? Don't see the point of intentional damage here.

    That looks cool, I'll take a look thanks! I've been studying how to implement blueprints+layers, that might give some good clues indeed, thanks!

    You're right, I'll put better instructions this week. In the message you sent it seems to be a git submodule initialization thing.

    I haven't thought of that. It might be cool to add something like that for some extra puzzle/optimisation element. I guess it might be useful for netlist export? thanks

    I'm glad you liked it :) . That's a good idea for the colors, I'll put it in, thanks! You're also right about the trailer, I'll put it there.

    Show HN: I made a digital circuit drawing and simulation game

    Inspired by games like Turing Complete/Virtual Circuit Board/Logic World, I tried to make a mix of aseprite and wiredworld/wired-logic, the idea being the user can build a digital …

    This looks so cool! I wonder if they'll make training data available

    Not necessarily. You can still provide decent services collecting anonymized data.

    For "easy gpu programming" look for tensorflow or any of these "run on CPU and GPU" libraries. For anything else there's no magic, need to write kernel code and take care of memory…

    Isn't there latency problems if you render your game on the cloud? I mean, you need to move the frame from Amazon GPU to your GPU I suppose.
