haha I actually made https://punkx.org/overflow/ to play with my daughter and it initially started with buffer overflowing to win tictactoe inspired from wargames, but I thought force jump to gameover was cooler.
A question and a suggestion:
1. How much of a first-mover advantage is there?
2. Maybe have the first player only execute 5 instructions on the first turn, to remove whatever first mover advantage there is -- that way at the end of each player's turn they will always be 5 moves "ahead" of their opponent, whether they went first or second.
3. Okay, a second question: I'm curious how well handicapping by e.g. one player getting an extra instruction per turn?
Shall we play a game?
