I have no experience with CUDA, is it possible to run this on a normal PC with a 1080ti?

I just find the concept of programming at such a low level fascinating. Stripping away all the complexities, boilerplate, and niceties of modern programing and ending up with a system like this where you go from directly modifying the contents of memory, to playing a fully fledged game written in basic is amazing.

A good reminder that at the end of the day all this CS stuff is just ones and zeros in a chip.
