Man this is really amazing, i got hooked for literally an hour :) thanks for the enjoyment make some tutorial-like levels where difficulty will progress from easiest possible to hard, let users start with 1 cpu only and add upgrades. it would be a really nice one
Really cool game!! It's informative as well. I like to think that theoretically someone could build an actual OS and do a twitch plays your the os, and someone is playing a game with the OS!
Progression: creating multiple 'levels' to introduce concepts would be welcome. If I don't read the tutorial, It's hard to get started. At the same time, the tutorial is better understood after having played a game and failing. Not sure I would have understood properly the tutorial if I would have read it prior to starting the game.
UX comment: Event button looks like an information label, which doesn't provide the player the sense that it's a clickable area. Tutorial easily covers this, but I would put a bit of effort to clarify what can be clicked and what can't.
This is a lot of fun, but it is super hard on the hands? It would be great if there was a keyboard input option, or at least hotkeys that could support mouse input.
Admittedly, part of the challenge might be mouse handling, but three rounds in and I can really feel it in my joints. XD
A really fun but stressful game! Tho I'd love to see a function added that allows you to remove processes via the number keys instead. Clicking is becomming stressful as it is already :)
feels very similar to FrostPunk. so likewise it'd be great if game can provide some positive feedback, like having the task output some meaningful or beautiful result.
An interesting game. I believe it would become even more enjoyable with additional details, such as displaying the progress of processes and I/O events (although they might not always be predictable in reality, it could be reasonable in a game). These elements provide me with more information to make decisions and reduce uncertainty. Nonetheless, it's already a good game.

I want to say sorry to my Windows OS, I promise I will be more patient.
if you add a way to updgrade the CPU it would be a REALLY nice game
I love this
if pure insanity was a game this is what it would look like
naw who using me to browse nsfw
wait are u my os
WAIT UR THE ONE USING ME TO BROWSE NSFW?!
My PC got offended by this game :( Chrome got frozen and then crashed, meantime I saw all the processes in the game got frozen and then crashed
Anyway, great game! I love it xD
Edit: I need to change RAM.. or user, it rebooted me :(

Why isn't it working for me...?
me too
This is an amazing game!! Only managed to survive 6 minutes on easy mode though.

Really enjoyed your project. Awesome work!

This is great. Would love to be able to set the new processes at 1%. 5% is still too much if you want to play casually.
I am a terrible, terrible OS
Anxiety-inducing, in a good way.
I never knew how it felt to be the OS. Now i know, and i will be more patient with it.
Feature requests: please also show the difficulty on the score page. I'd like to screencap and send to my friends with the difficulty attached
Normal difficulty, on a 13inch tablet, using 2 fingers.
Got 247536 after 8'53"
(much higher than using a mouse, 150000-ish)

Great game.
What a lovely little time killer ♥

Exactly this suggestion I also wanted to make.
+ And remove I/O events
yes something like
1234 to remove tasks
space bar to prod IO events
nothing too crazy quality of life improvements only, awesome game!

A normal OS isn't aware of that, neither are you, the OS (lol
You definitely have a point there.
while I dont think this is like frostpunk, I respect that u are a fellow frostpunk fan too
