Good people at Valve once said players should buy into an early access for what it is now and not for what it could be. We agree! Make sure you read the Early Access Game section above.
Hard Chip is in its active development phase. While the core player experience is in place, the content is subject to change. You may encounter areas where fine-tuning is ongoing, and some features may evolve as we continue to improve the game. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us shape the final product, and we appreciate your understanding and support during this exciting phase of development!
About the Game
Step into the shoes of 'new_user', an engineer tasked with the monumental challenge of repairing machines to escape from an unknown location. Your tool? The fundamental building blocks of digital logic: complementary transistors.
BUILD YOUR OWN PARTS
Begin with the basics of electronic components, creating gates out of complementary transistors. Learn the art of electronic design as you progress from simple NAND and NOR gates to complex circuits capable of performing intricate tasks.
ASSEMBLE THEM
Combine your gates into larger, more sophisticated parts. Each assembly is a puzzle, demanding not just intelligence but creativity, planning, and foresight.
OPTIMIZE
Optimize your designs for efficiency and space, pushing the limits of your engineering prowess.
TERMINALS
All electronics seem non-functional, and they are your only way forward.
