8 bit or 4 bit does not matter, it is "TPT's Smallest Computer." Not "TPT's Smallest 8 Bit computer."

So since he has a smaller functioning computer, he broke your record

A computer is a computer, no matter how small

You still hold a great record, just gotta make some signs more specific, eh? Lel

For smallest 8-bit, of course. I wonder how long I'll hold onto the record for smallest computer overall. I am considering making one with filt, but I'm going to leave that until my record is challenged.

Its not awful, I am personally fascinated by how you packed everything. If you used FILT you might make it even smaller. I almost thought no one will actually try to make a smaller one. Im glad it happened. Even though its not 8bit, so my record isnt broken yet :)

Even though I admit I pretty much made this computer for the gimmick of being small, I did put some effort in to make the ROM larger (if more complicated) to store more instructions.

The ROM is special in how it stores instructions, so making a compiler wouldn't be easy. And the clock speed is dependant on instruction speed; easier to make and in less space.

Well, yeah, mine is awful compared to yours, but it's still the smallest computer on Powder Toy. I wonder if this will inspire another user to make one even smaller, like yours did to me.
