This project is an implementation of the Synacor OSCON 2012 challenge as a learning exercise for the Rust programming language.
The Synacor challenge is a programming puzzle that involves implementing a virtual machine capable of executing a set of instructions and solving a series of puzzles along the way. The challenge domain is currently offline so a copy of the material such as the one found on Aneurysm9/vm_challenge is needed.
The project contains the following binaries:
debug: runs the VM and provides simple debugging commands to play around and automatize the solution.disassemble: translates the binary into a readable assembly representation.generate-graph: generates the Graphviz DOT representation of the different locations, their connections and items on each.solve-teleporter-puzzle: solver for the setting needed for the teleporter puzzle.solve-vault-puzzle: solver for the last puzzle to find the way to enter the vault.
It also contains the inputs needed to get each of the 8 codes.
Compile and run the binary using:
cargo run --release --bin $bin_name
Alternatively, if it's already been compiled, just run it with:
./target/release/$bin_name
