To KoRnDogG:
To help you answer your question (and to even inspire you in the process, too!), here is a link that will lead you to the kind of text games you are perhaps looking for:
There, it will lead you to an absolutely worthy tribute to such very AWESOME-quality text games as
ANSi Dude,
Insanity,
Islands of Danger (my
favorite text-game from my early â386-based computerâ years!!
! ), a text version of
Missile Command ( :o ), and of course, the great
ZZT!!
For 2D vertically-scrolling
text-based shooting games, please try
VAX-11, an
amazingly hot Japanese freeware offering for Windows 9x and up from none other than
Hello World Project. It is available as an inspiration file for my
QuickBASIC Caliber Programming Compo 2004/2005, so click
right here to visit it, and while you are there, man, if you check out Original Category #1 of my compo (where I currently hold a *very* special QB âtext-modeâ-only challenge!), you are sure to find the gem for âya indeed!!
^_- !!
Thanks a lot for your excellent question, man, and I *deeply* welcome you to the
QBasicNews.com forumboard. Enjoy your stay!
