Computer chips have become so small and complex that it's sometimes hard to remember that there are real physical principles that drive them. They're not just a collection or numbers. Yery For a real-world (well virtual) example, look up the most recent version of a computer processor that is built exclusively within the Minecraft game engine.
Minecraft builder "Sammyuri" spent seven months creating what they call the Chungus 2, an enormously complex computer processor that is within the Minecraft game engine. This isn't even the first time a computer processor has been virtual rebuilt within Minecraft but the Chungus 2 (Computation Humongous Unconventional Number and Graphics Unit) could very well be the largest and most complex, as it simulates an 8-bit processor, with a one hertz clock speed and an adabyte of RAM.
Minecraft processors utilize the physics engine in the game to recreate the architecture of real processors on a macro level using materials such as redstone dust, torches pistons, repeaters, and other simple machines. To provide a sense of the size of the game, each block in Minecraft is a virtual millimeter in size. This means it would be roughly the same size as the size of a cruise ship or a skyscraper if this build could be recreated in the real world.
When connected to an in-game 32x32 "screen" and "controller" (manipulated by a Minecraft player avatar jumping on buttons of the size of blocks) The Chungus 2 can play interchangeable 2D games such as Tetris, Snake, or even a graphing calculator. Certain programs require the Minecraft server to be artificially accelerated to make the 1Hz processor responsive enough to play. Each program is built virtually in Minecraft, plugging into the computer like a game cartridge the size of a freight train.
The project is an astonishing application of computer science, created in an approach that makes its concepts tangible and visible. The video showcasing the Chungus 2 is dramatic enough, but if you want to test it yourself, you can download and run it on your personal server at mc.openredstone.org. If we hold off for a few years, we may get a Minecraft CPU that is capable enough to run Minecraft and at that the universe could implode.
