Every new theoretical idea is first presented to you in a tutorial and subsequently practised in the near workspace. The outputs of your design efforts are tested through a list of tasks, so that there are practically infinitely-many ways to reach the next level, although some are more optimized than others. However, the more ingenuous designs begin to be an absolute necessity when you move further in the game.
There are four game modes featured.
Slow-paced Tutorial and Design modes allow you to design each component they further use from the basic logic. A set of 25 (+hidden) achievements then makes your progress visible to others.
Sandbox mode gives you all components available in game with infinite workspace to create, test, debug and save whatever you want for further use or publication, and even when you run out of challenges there, there is the option of competing with other players (currently in Alpha test phase).
All game's components, levels and tasks are stored in a readable format to be easy to edit or create. Scripting of new components, writing new levels and tutorials as well as tests is possible using respective editors included in the game.
Please note that the game is in Alpha and ONLINE ONLY.
The original though was that the game would be available on all kind of devices (in various versions), and not all of them (e. g. tablets or smartphones) could bear the complexity of simulation or some other aspects of gameplay (e. g. compilation). It was a design choice made early in the development process and is currently not revertable. We are, however, planning to rewrite the code for the release from the Alpha stage.

It's sad, but this game no longer works. I played it a little when it first came out and it was fun. Now when you launch it brings up a dark screen but if you look really closely it says "Hardware engineering is dead... not the profession but the game". I guess the guy who bought the url put it up or something. Sad, because I was wanting to play somthing just like this as all of the other games are either lower level than I want (Turing Complete, etc) or too abstracted (see any Zachtronics game). This filled a nice niche in the middle.
It's not the end of the world that this game failed. It is garbage that it is still for sale when it literally can not work.
NO NOT BUY, game does not work. Devs shut down server, and it no longer works.
NOT WORKING
As the description says, it's an online game, depending on a server to provide the content for it, and the server is not there anymore.
Refunded and reported.
Should not be sellable anymore.
DO NOT BUY - BUGGED GAME
This game is broken and will not currently load. The user will get a black screen which will never go away. This is caused by an issue with the developers chosen authentication method for the game. There is no way around it and the game will not load until authenticated which sometimes never happens. I have never successfully opened the game after waiting 3 hours for it to load.
This game no longer works! Do not buy it as you will only ever get a black screen! The devs shut down the server and are not fixing anything!
