This *was* the smallest in august 2017, 65*98px. Smaller cpus exist now. You can call it, half-subframe due the fact that it uses some tricks like particle order to make it small, its not operating on 60hz though (with def. fps cap). More in forum thread

    @program I did observe the sequence reach an overflow, i.e. jumping from some number in the 200s back to the 90s which could be expected of 8-bit addition, plus you can see the 8-bit adder at the bottom of the processor working away.

    @Jedidiahm22 first read about how computers work IRL, then consult the wiki for electronics guides, and then you can begin constructing simple electronic things and eventually moving up to a computer

    @program we'll find out if/when he publishes the instruction set

    didn't you just program the sequence in the ROM instead of having the computer calculate it?

    It's smaller than mapS id:975033 and my old, originally planned BitStormer Preon id:1930216... Quite the fascinating "transitional FILT" and "modern FILT" hybrid you have here.

    @DavePlaysPowderToy computer = device for storing and processing data according to programmed instructions.

    Could it be made smaller with wifi?

    couldn't you call a half-adder a computer? ^u^
