Or lose a life trying. Includes up to 16-bit modes for the ultimate challenge. Includes multiple 4-bit modes, to train individual nibbles. All bit-modes can also be played in signed or unsigned mode. (toggle via left/right keys) Signed mode includes negative numbers and requires knowledge of two's complement. Can you crack the high score? The longer your streak, the more points you get, but the faster the timer runs out! High scores are tracked for each game-mode separately, and saved in a text file relative to the executable. Play Download the release for your platform, see Releases. There is one file for linux and one for windows (.exe). Linux - download the file binbreak-linux - open a terminal and navigate to the folder where you downloaded it, e.g. cd /Downloads - make it executable: chmod +x binbreak-linux - run the game: ./binbreak-linux Controls - use the arrow or vim keys for navigation - use left/right to toggle signed/unsigned mode - press Enter to confirm choices - press Esc or Q to exit a game mode or the game.
