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

    Well, thats an 8-bit computer for ya :). Actually its compatible with 29-bits, but the ALU and instruction ROM decoder are made specifically to read and allow (and process) 8-bit numbers. So with a i could make it a little bigger, but then the **whole** computer should be redesigned entirely. Thats because of the fact that spark is propagated mostly by CRAY, diagonally. It becomes a mess of soup of metals :)

    Seems like the fibbonachi sequence overflows at 255, the 8-bit integer limit. Not suprising, but I had expected it to go at least until 999.

    looks pretty neat running at 160fps, just needs to be more like a few billion fps to run as fast as a real computer chip :D

    (for the FP, oh wait its 7 days old, thats why)..
