Turing Machine 2D

Invisible Unicorns

About this game

This simulator may be useful for studying how computation models work.
With this app you can:
- create and edit programs for 2-dimensional Turing Machine;
- run programs in the simulator;
- debug programs step-by-step;
- have fun with RGB mode, where instead of symbols you draw on grid with colours!

Includes tutorial! If you don't know what Turing Machine is, tutorial might help you. (No guarantees though.)

Also includes trials - tasks for Turing machine! With these things you can check how good you are in Turing machine programming. Trials are quite interesting, give them a try.

Also, if you have encountered some bugs or crashes, please, let me know, and I'm gonna fix it.

Ratings and reviews

Very nice! The UI is clean and simple. The one feature that would make a huge difference would be to copy a program. It would be a lot more convenient, as opposed to taking screenshots and alternating between apps to reuse functionality. Edit: The ability to zoom in and out would also be nice. Edit 2: WOW! It's perfect!

This app is nice, but I keep deleting states because of how easy it is to do. Please make a thing that says "Are you sure you want to delete this state?" where you can hit the no button to keep the state.

Fun but has some problems. Drag state verticle does not work. This makes it difficult to alter programs. Trace mod 3 does not accept a good answer. Maybe if I could see the failed test case I could figure out what is wrong.

What’s new

Quick fix: Trutorial now should not get stuck in Lesson 2.
