I thought this would be more like MARS, but turns out to be bare-metal
MARSCore War where I’m the scheduler. I’m not saying it a terrible experience, but I am grateful that my day job in IT is more higher-level.What’s MARS? I couldn’t find any reference that seemed to match due to… well, the ambiguitiy of the name :D
Oups, I misremembered: the game is called Core War. In it, MARS (“Memory Array Redcode Simulator”) is the name of a virtual machine that executes Redcode instructions. As a player, you write small programs (“warriors”) to be loaded on the virtual machine where they try to prevail while klling off (overwriting) opponent programs.
Thanks for that - much appreciated. Sorry I failed to respond earlier, I’m still getting used to the fediverse, and seem to have managed to get multiple accounts so… yeah

I thought this as well.
This is lovely! An upgrades system would be really neat - like buying more cores, or bigger memory, or
shooting users in the head when they don’t log out after completing five tasksI need to try it ASAP!
This is so cute! Reminds me of the NAND game.
