In the late 80's I created a game on the Commodore 64 Called the Wizard's curse. I then ported it over to the Amstrad 128.
In the 90's, I ported it over to Basica, GWbasic and later to Qbasic, (so it doesn't have all fancy stuff that you can do in quick basic 4+, it is just a straight port basically)
Anyway, now I have released the game publicly for download. So in 2007, that would make the game almost 20 years old, with out ever being released!
I had no Idea there were still active qbasic communities
I have included an executable and the .bas code. I included the .bas mainly to have a laugh. The code is about 80% the same as the Amstrad 128 version, as I copied it manually line by line, then changed what I had to, to make it work :lol:
Make sure you have a quick look at the instructions text file.
Here is the download for the game:

The Wizard's Curse is a classic top down action game with RPG elements such as gold, shops, dungeons, monsters and of course a main quest.
The graphics are not as good as some of the newer Quick Basic 4+ games (as it works in Qbasic standard), but the gameplay rocks!!!
See if you can beat an old 80's game
