This game has been written from scratch in C, which I learned the day of the contest. The source code is straightforward and I encourage you to take a look.
It's mildly entertaining.. With most of the early choices leading in death, and me just randomly picking a path shortly afterwards leading to winning... It's sort of a frustrating game.. Even when I won I didn't get the satisfaction I expected.
Pretty funny although too short (with everything except one path leading to death). And you've taught me that running a command-line application in wine actually runs it in the terminal. And now for some things I feel the need to reply to (spoilers ahead).
"*You'd have to recompile me to add a giving functionality, you fool!*" modprobe giving
"KILLALL -KILL YOU" bash: KILLALL: command not found How could you be so case-insensitive! Oh, wait, shouldn't that be -u?
Yay, the first command line game I've played! Congrats on finishing. Consider adding more interactivity next time - the game is pretty straightforward as is.
Bonus for humor (some lines almost made me chuckle), but otherwise... the length, quite total randomness of the responses... I noticed you wrote that you've learned the C on the day of the competition, but even then you could give it a bit more - judging by the source size I'd guess you spent about hour (two at max) making it including the "learn C" part
The game felt a bit like trial and error. Every time I had to just try. It might be easier if there were a few different paths, instead of just one. It would also make the game different each time you play.
Yes, I firsted my own game's comment box. Why? I've never done this before. Its a new experience. And the only person to get mad is me :D
The page looks a little sad with no comments :(
