My single-instruction (subleq) programming game:
https://github.com/jaredkrinke/sic1 https://github.com/jaredkrinke/sic1
I really thought enough people liked esolangs and zachlikes, but it failed to get a single upvote, so never even made it to the “Show” page (well, not until like a week later, at which point it was buried anyway) :(
- Toutouxc 4y agoI don't know about everyone else, but to me programming with just the "subtract and branch if less than or equal to zero" instruction sounds way, way more frustrating than something like the TIS-100. I don't play programming games to be frustrated, I play them to feel smart, and the line between is dangerously thin.
- schemescape 4y agoYeah, definitely not for everyone! I found the most fun parts to be: 1) figuring out how to support indirection/pointers, and 2) optimizing solutions for memory usage (there are a lot of clever tricks, once you start looking closely).
- Yahivin 4y agoLooks neat! From my first impression I would ease off on the green box shadow, it somewhat clashes with the retro aesthetic.
