Due to its simplicity, Brainfuck has a very shallow learning curve. It takes 5 minutes to learn but days of active thinking to master. This game, being a combination of an interactive guide with a powerful simulator equipped with debugging features, leads players through the primitive structures and basic patterns of the language with the ultimate goal of writing a self-interpreter (a program written in Brainfuck that can execute any valid Brainfuck code). Waves of frustration commonly associated with learning by many are fought against by a rich set of notes and hints that make completion of individual tasks painless and if one ever gets lost at any point, the game comes with a database of thoroughly worked solutions.
A part of the content of the game is subdivided into schemas of scenarios that each focus on different aspects of Brainfuck programming. The basic tutorial demonstrates the many capabilities of the language and can be completed in just 20 minutes. Scenarios on calculations, number sequences, sorting and optimization give players a broad overview of what's possible not just in Brainfuck, but in the programming world in general. All of the problem-solving skills acquired can be further used in one's personal and professional interests. Should one feel like experimenting or working on their own project, the Sandbox schema provides the environment to do so.
The game also features a level editor that can be brought up at any time by a single mouse click on both distributed and custom content. Schematics of different scenarios, testing plans, and savegames are hand-editable and the documentation is provided in the game itself, allowing players to create their own custom fork of the content.

it's super buggy and I think it's not worth it
A UI is like a joke. If you have to explain it, it isn't a good one.
It's a good game or at least it could be, but it's rigged with bugs and seriously lacks functionality and the developer won't do anything about from the other posts I've read. For some people the game won't even launch.
Doesn't work at all, can't progress at all, pressing the Enter button, or just any key on the keyboard doesn't do anything...
Nice ! +1 for the game concept (good way to learn registers principle)
There're some bugs as mention by other reviewers mainly with the interface&sound, but still a good game.
Unplayable, abandoned.
Doesn't work. Pg Up/Dn doesn't do anything and neither does the press enter. Aka I can't progress, the sandbox works but I don't like the fact that the memory adds in 1-9 then appends letters just confuse me. And Since I can't do the tutorial, I can't understand it. Great concept, poor execution.
Kept freezing and flickering. Totally unusable on Debian 9
Great concept. Having a hard time playing due to loads of bugs. Would love an update fixing the bugs. WIll update review as needed.
like the concept ... its just a pain in the ass with all the bugs
Unplayable on Ubuntu 18.04.01 (new Dell XPS13) - similar issues as user cphill1973 of flickering with no display, restarting can (sometimes) load main screen but tutorial always freezes randomly during text display and sandbox is nonfunctional. Not the brainf*ck experience I was hoping for.
Unplayable. I mean it just does not work..
Great job!
Had a lot of fun completing the tutorial and learned brainfuck through it.
Implementing "Hello World!" and comparing it to the wikipedia solution made me smile then.
I'm a professional programming trainer (mostly Python and webdev stuff) and i will definitely add this to my list of good learning games. It's worth every penny!
Played on Ubuntu 16 LTS without any problems so far.
Brainf*ck!
Thanks, I hate it.

If you actually enjoy programming, hard puzzles and minimalistic UI & music, buy this.
Unplayable on Ubuntu 18.04...wasn't expecting much given the measly $2.29(usd) cost, however I feel that a game costs a single cent it should at least work! Not sure what I'm more upset about, paying for a game that does not work or the 5 minutes that I had to let my machine sit watching a flickering screen idol just so I could complain via review.
Here are a couple of things that are currently not working for me :
- There is no way to reopen a tab once it has been closed.
- "Show solution" on the input-output tab doesn't work.
- Pressing "Enter" doesn't show the hidden tabs.
- Sometimes typing "h" doesn't show the help tabs
- Closing the game freezes it sometimes.
There are a couple more that I forget but basically that's it.
Hoping to see some improvement soon as the game itself is very promising.
Consider my brain fucked
