I knew the feature would come. Too bad it isn't for this year POTY because passed 1st December. Cry

IT HAD to be featured anyway. <- Almost exaggerating there. *runs*
Yeah I was surprised considering it got uploaded a while ago, I was sure they would do like they did with Doom 68K in 2007. Oh well, this year it would have an hard time competing against Doors CS7 and Axe Parser, IMHO. X.x

Ztrumpet congrats on making an excellent game. For pure BASIC I don't think it can be topped. Speedwise/graphicwise it is top notch. Congrats on the feature it is well deserved.

18 if I checked correctly. The record was 20 in 2004.

Indeed. I am sure there can be some more complex BASIC games but it would be extremly hard to achieve. Just Exodus must have been pretty hard to create and it really deserves a feature for the effort.

I missed this comment but I think the last time a pure BASIC game was featured was Contra 83+, if we don't take into account it was featured 6 years late. The last time a 83+ BASIC game that uses lib got featured was your own game Shift. Tongue

Hmmm i wonder what the last time a pure basic game was featured outside of Contra (which should have been featured to begin with).  I wonder if its on the order of years :O

Besides that and WFRNG it would be Oil Imperium for the 92, Civilization Simulator by KermMartian, both in 2004, and before that the last 68K basic game being feature is The War Zone for the 89.

There used to be a huge bias/hate against BASIC programs back in the days, which kinda changed on the z80 scene after I got some stuff featured, but it took until 2010 before another pure BASIC game gets featured again.

When Axe came out, I worried that Omnimaga would turn into a BASIC hater site with all Axe coders bashing BASIC games and programmers, but I am glad it isn't the case.

It made many programmers to move to Axe because of all the advantages in Axe over TI-BASIC.
But because many were BASIC programmers, I doubt all would be against TI-BASIC, an expert TI-BASIC programmers knows that can be fun to push it to the limit.
