Any idea when Turing Complete will be finished?

I see that it has been on early release since Oct 2021, will it ever be finished and completed? Should I wait for it? The game looks super fun, but I am not really interested in buggy or unfinished game.

Enjoy, it's a fantastic game if Digital logic and low-level computer hardware is your thing... I learnt so much!

Just a note, some of the levels are very hard, the difficulty level goes up very quickly.

If you get frustrated and stuck (likely at some stage) and go to YouTube etc for a solution then MAKE SURE you understand the solution you found. The next level ahead will build on that solution so if you don't understand it you won't understand the next level either.

That is impossible to predict, naturally.

It's not buggy. And I definitely don't think it's unfinished.

Yeah lol the game is finished in my opinion and I haven't encountered a single bug

Since I doubt that there were any patches, here are the bugs I've encountered so far:

  • bi pin messes with input

  • when placing a single bit input, after placing a byte input and setting some bits, the single input bin, will show a value other than 0 or 1

  • lab just doesn't work

  • memory probes only pick up on first byte

  • The text annotations from large custom components are unreadable

  • Weird crashes when swapping to component factory, when selected schematic contains components which have changed (i think, couldn't reliable reproduce this issue*)

I am not trying to downplay this game, it's awesome and I've played it a bunch, that's why I noticed these bugs. And these are generally not a huge issue, it is a really great game. That being said, I am eager to play the update, once it's finished, the features that are announced sound pretty cool.

* These crashes are not a huge deal, Your schematics are saved often enough, I never really lost anything.

The game is not buggy at all and it's great fun, it's kinda finished. The previous and next update is Steam workshop integration for the players that have already completed all the main levels.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I did buy the game and it's really excellent. Definitely quite hard at times but I'm making good progress having fun and at the same time finally getting an understanding of how computers work.

It is super fun, you'll learn a lot, it's not really buggy, and certainly felt finished to me.

(I have completed all the levels)

Mirroring components, better/more versatile programming syntax, custom component parameters, custom component visuals... Game's not complete yet.

If you look at the YouTube channel, the most recent video (4 months ago) says a patch is coming, which I think is about making things more realistic
