I was making adder circuits in games 8 years ago in an attempt to build a computer. I finally worked my way up and built a working computer!

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/factorio

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • logisim-evolution

    Digital logic design tool and simulator

  • though i'd heavily recommend first building the circuit in a logic simulator like Logisim, or Digital before trying to build it in a game for an FPGA. (Digital even allows you to export circuits as Verilog/VHDL, and as a certified lazy person, that is very useful)

  • Digital

    A digital logic designer and circuit simulator.

  • customasm

    💻 An assembler for custom, user-defined instruction sets! https://hlorenzi.github.io/customasm/web/

  • also if you start writing programs for your own CPUs, use something like CustomASM so you don't have to write in machine code.
