Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i wish i understood the specifications better. I tend to be just looking at the verification screen to figure out what's going on. I'm now stuck. I'm not thick... but i can't do this game beyond level 11 (and i can't do 10 either). Maybe if i had studied electronics or maths to a higher level...

I'd love an "undo" function, a way to rotate blocks of components and another key than shift to switch between tools (because for some unknown reason my flash player fails to detect shift properly).

This and the Codex both need a way to save progress. I keep losing completed levels whenever my browser or the Flash plugin crashes.

you do realise there is a pause feature in the tutorial vid, so you can read what you want to read and skip the rest?

Konstruktor is brilliant. Starting from the game title - managed to make a meaningful Cyrillic title using onle looking-alike Latin letters. The game made me to search about NOT, AND and OR circuits, and it's challenging even with the know-how. 5/5 for sure...

Figured out level 2 with score of 15. The best hint I can give is that you don't need to achieve 100% to pass the verification test.

I made an SR latch but at the beginning it just oscillates. I'm wondering if i should build in a mechanism to stop that...
good joke glfootballmlb21 :D

I wish you could pause the verification at certain points, it would help out troubleshooting and diagnostics tremendously. It's hard to figure out what isn't working right when you can't test it.

Good concept and fun to play...once you understand it. Current Tutorial Replay Count: //Runtime Error: Value too large to be stored as a long variable. (Yay programming humor :])

A bit too confusing without a good enough tutorial. I want to know how to play it, but it's just too confizzling for me.

Funny to see that two of the three recommended games are also made by zach(krispykrem for the unaware.). That shows how little games there are in this genre. I think everyone would agree with me if I'd say: "We Need More!".

I'd really like to play this, but when I hit the Shift key for the first time, it switches from N-type to P-type silicon permanently, and I can't switch it back. Maybe it's because of some bug in the Linux flash player, but it would be nice to have some other way in the interface to switch, or another key.

To HellzBullet: if you want to make the delay longer just make another line of gates (i assume you wanted to say gates instead of transistors sorry for the correction) and connect the last one of the first row with the first one of the second just like you would do if they would be just next to each other (my apologies for grammar mistakes i am not english)

It bothers me, that a simple delay circuit, that lasts 2 cycles (2 lines) is 9 transistors long. I cant double the frequency like that :(
Anyway, its a game that I have been looking for a long time. 5 points :)

hmm. Its taken me untill now to figure out that it takes time for a gate to turn off as well as on... lol. Now i understand my oscillator

You don't need any switches to prevent feedback on the 3rd design... X only gets current if they're all on, easy enough to do, and Y gets current if any of them are on - make 4 "OR" gates in a row with VCC on one end - turns off if any of them are on. You know where to go from there.
AND gate attached to VCC seems to be the best way of preventing feedback though, if you still feel you need it.

DIODES: you should put a AND gate (NPN) with one of the N ends plugged in VCC+ and the P gate with the Input and the other N gate with the output... Then it will conduct current when the Input is on and it will not interfere with what you put in the yellow silicon as the output doesn´t interfere with the input...

How to make a diode? Those transistors don't work like diodes. I'm stuck with 3rd design, I can easily make either OR or AND gate, but not them together - they interfere with each other and I don't see how to avoid that without diodes...
