Hmm I wonder if they ever fixed Terraria for Mac OS. I bought it based on hype but it wasn't handling my laptop display right so I never found out what it's about.

#12A friend sent me the YouTube video, which is a fantastic watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXPiqk0-zDY . Minecraft computers have been done for a while now, but seeing a full RISC-V computer running programs is really impressive, and frankly just seems really cool. The programs are written in Rust, and then compiled to run in game. Plus, the author needed to write their own mod to make the Terraria wiring effici…
I cannot believe he did the wiring "by hand". Loved the bug example he highlighted, which I hope is something he can reference later in life, "What's the most difficult bug you ever fixed?"
Even with the "cross-eyed" trick to overlap the left and right sides, I could not spot the error. How in the world did he find it!?

#13Hey I'm the one who made this, if anyone is interested in the specifics I'm happy to go into details!
Also as another comment indicates probably a better explanation of the project is the video I made about it: https://youtu.be/zXPiqk0-zDY

This is a super impressive achievement.
- What would you say is your biggest learning from this experiment? - What were the Aha! moments you experienced while learning like this? For example, something you vaguely understood before but is now super clear to you.

Haven't had any problem playing on Steam for Mac OS once you get your resolution settings correct.

#16Roger me sidewise, this is wonderfully crazy. I foresee a bright future for the creator.

#17Now we need a terraria build for RISC, so we can play terraria in terraria
You might want to watch the video the author himself posted above!

#18Very impressive and in such a short time frame. So is the schema for this design only in the game? I assume if the game is saved it can be loaded on another computer? But can the schema/layout be emitted to a file so it can be parsed elsewhere?

#19Tbh, the video was better explained than my college computer architecture lessons

#20Holy shit! Game, optimizations, code, test suite and even a simple 3D render - not to mention a well edited video game with a great sense of humor, gags, memes and the obvious next step already in the works.
This guy is going places!!
