Awesome small game! One remark: if you always press B - you will win :) Also, if you would add some more options and some ascii art - that would be amazing. Can you post the source code?
Thanks ergodrichev, I added the source code to the itch.io page - SOURCE.BAS - It's a little janky though. I'm aware of the press B thing. Although now you've given away the secret ;) I left it like that as I was trying to make a faithful adaption of the text version that my young son made. I don't think it ruins it because the fun is in the losing anyway. Thanks for playing :)
Hi Emerysfire, I used QuickBasic 4.5 which has a compile option. It can be found online easily (often listed as QBasic 4.5). From memory the Qbasic that came free with DOS wouldn't compile but QuickBasic (at least the later versions) which was a seperate program you had to buy, would compile. Not sure on the legality of The QuickBasic 4.5 downloads you can find but I owned it back in the day so felt OK about using it. Thanks for playing, will make sure to play your game when it's up.
OHH, thanks, I was using just regular QBasic on my grandfather's DOS machine lol I've got QuicBasic in DosBox now, I'm making a quick dungeon crawler with a twist *wink* I'll probably post it in a few day's, I'm coding the ending right now and testing for bugs
