What a marvelous project! The amount of efforts that the author put into this project makes my jaw drop.

This project reminds me of a question I've had in my mind, though. If this world is a simulation, would that be an accurate simulation of the elementary particles and their interactions (like this project), or an appropriated one (like normal Game Boy emulators)?

FurrTek deserves as much credit as I do for doing the initial exceptionally painstaking step of marking out the die traces and cells on the die shot. Not all of his guesses were correct, but they were enough to get things started.

I suspect that this world is a high-level simulation until you pull out a microscope, at which point it switches to low-level mode. ;)

Ah yes the real life LOD system

I read somewhere (I'll dig for the article) that one of the conclusions of Quantum mechanics was that "things don't exist unless you look at them". And the claim was that this actually happened on the macro level.

This is one of many articles that discusses the experiment: https://www.sciencealert.com/reality-doesn-t-exist-until-we-...
