Price History of The Assembler

Description of The Assembler

With 'The Assembler' you can learn the basics of binary operations by creating little art pieces. For each of the chapters you programm an image with a limited set of commands. Eight rows of 8-Bit Registers become your canvas. Use Assembly to manipulate the values in every register, thus creating an 8x8 painting. 'The Assembler' was made as a small and fun introduction to Assembly, Programming and the Binary system that powers it all. The first version of this app was made for the Swift Student Challenge 2022 and won! I hope that you enjoy this project as much as I have.

Reviews of The Assembler

A fun way to learn assembly

I was much more familiar with ARM assembly many years ago, but it’s been a long time since I’ve used it, so I’ve forgotten nearly all of it. This app proved to be a very effective and entertaining way to refresh my memory. It explains all the low-level concepts very clearly, and keeps me engaged a lot longer than a decompiler and a textbook do

Response from developer

Thank you so much! Good to hear that you had fun whilst learning.

Fixed: chapter skipping - nice

They fixed the chapter skipping bug, nice. I've only just restarted, but it's so good that I came like this exists. Looking at assembly code is really important just to understand what is being produced by most programming languages. Occasionally comes up, but is often too arcane to be used because most people don't have exposure. I'm excited to work my way through this game. There may be some game design elements that could be improved (e.g.when they introduce MVN the task doesn't seem to benefit from its use) - still fun and accessible.

Response from developer

Thank you so much. I’m happy you like it. Thanks for the feedback on the MVN chapter, I’ll see what I come up with for the next update. Hope you continue to have fun! EDIT: This issue is fixed in the version 1.1 Update. Hey, I'm Lena, the developer of the app. Thank you for downloading my app. I am not sure I am aware of the issue you are describing. Maybe you can help me fix it. Currently I am working on an update. I would be delighted if you could email me a description of what's happening to: lena@fancygoose.dev Thank you

Neat. Currently broken though.

Every other chapter (for first 5 that I’ve seen) auto-concludes.

Fun intro to assembly if ever fixed though.
