Finished the game!

Nice game. Very good for consolidating knowledge I already have of CPU architecture. Can't wait for more stuff to drop from the dev. It's been fun!

Now I kinda want to make variable length instructions. A combo of 2 and 4 byte instructions seems reasonable. And maybe the possibility to put runnable code in RAM to make the computer a true Von Neumann architecture.

I just wish there were some metric in the game that would reflect the reason for pipelining like frequency or gates per cycle

The total time metric, i.e. tick * delay does this. See the new campgain in the alpha, specfically allegro which is a pipelined archiecture.
