Took me ages of tapping around before I hit a page that obtusely says "NAND needs a desktop" and then another ten seconds before I realized that was telling me I'm blocked on mobile.
If you're going to block mobile devices, make it upfront and obvious because 80% of people who land on your site will probably be on one.

Ah yeah I guess the map page is not gated thanks for pointing that out

the "snappy quick-witted style" of this along with "think X but with Y" makes me think this is the type of prose that gets rated higher in post-training RL or something and yet annoys the heck out of actual readers

That's funny I genuinely could not think of another way to try an engage the people who play Turing Complete on Steam so I just gave this a whirl. In my head everyone on hn has played it but clearly not

What's with the title?
It's a Typescript-to-circuit converter/transpiler/compiler.

I think “Turing Complete” here refers to a game about making circuits:
Great game, too, with some truly surprising features (like Verilog export)

For those who may have taken a leak at the game in the past: The recent update from this summer was a ground up engine rewrite with all sorts of features like this.

Thank you. That was lost on me, too.

Good feedback. I tried a similar title on a previous post and got no traction so I tried to contextualise by relating it to Turing Complete. Didn't hit

I think the "Turing Complete" part is about the "It has a campaign its not just a ts-to-circuit compiler"
charlesfrisbee 12 days ago [-]
Yea exactly. I made the campaign using the open source libs to try to get people using it creatively/in a somewhat familiar setting. Appreciate you having taken a look
