Notch, the creator of Minecraft, has introduced a new game called 0x10c, a space simulator where players program their spaceships using a CPU managed by a Virtual Machine. GitHub has recognized the game's programming language, DCPU-16 Assembly, as an officially supported language, enabling automatic recognition and highlighting of relevant files and code blocks. The game has gained significant popularity, with numerous repositories on GitHub dedicated to various aspects of 0x10c, including virtual machines for multiple programming languages and tools like an LLVM backend that generates DCPU-16 assembly. Enthusiasts and developers are actively contributing to the game's community by creating resources like a live editing environment and a kernel written in DCPU-16 assembly, fostering a vibrant ecosystem around Notch’s latest creation.
