I made a computer again. It can do a lot of stuff the previous one couldn't and can do stuff that for a long time I didn't think a TPT computer might ever do. It definitely can run C++. Check the relevant forum thread too.

Ik there's builds of the game that fit within bytes, so it'd be (hopefully) reletively simple to impliment

Yes it does have colour, 16 of them. Go see what the manual says about the terminal. GOL would be fine, I've actually considered that and is my first choice, maybe later.

oh, also does it have color?, also a cool demo would be to add gol, i dont know how complicated that will be

SiIent: Very hard to say, probably a month, but it was on and off through multiple months.

The demo is not as much a banger as last time because I had no time to make anything better and the focus here is the architecture and the fact that it can be targeted real-life toolchains. Nevertheless, I'm open to ideas of simple demos to add.

nice, how long did this take

There's something called a "freestanding environment" in compiler tech, which means that while you're using a high-level language, you don't get any of the support an operating system normally gives you. This is a freestanding environment, so I *will not* be answering dumb questions about whether you can build Doom for this.
