So I got bored a few days ago and I made this to entertain myself until I could get to sleep

It doesn't really have any point yet but, I think i might be able to do something interesting with this
I would like some ideas of where I should go with this.

I should say so!  How are you on coming up with storylines?

Haven't gotten that far, just made this a few days ago and haven't touched it since

Though I'm thinking maybe a nerd turns superhero just for all the calculator addicts out there (including me)

Very nice!  Very minimalistic, yet it looks quite good :D

I like what you have so far. I hope it gets farther into development. I love RPGs.

Your forum signature... though... made me lose again D:

hmm... looks rather nice
the map refresh was agonizingly slow, though, so i checked the code to see what was up
instead of using separate if statements for each tile type just use a sub( command

so the new mapper would look like this:
Code: [Select]
:for(A,1,8
:for(B,1,16
:Output(A,B,sub("_XS",1+([A](A,B)),1
*you can store "_XS" to a string and then just stick the string token
*here if you like. that 1+ can also be done away with if you increment
*every value in you map matrix by one, which would make it draw slightly
*faster, but might be a pain
:end
:end

that should work and increase speed considerably(although i almost always get typos when first writing a longer command like that and never know until i try running it)
i didnt check through anything else, but you should try to avoid menus as a general rule(especially in larger games)
otherwise, it looks pretty awesome. good luck on making this into something!
oh, and thanks a lot, dj, now im a loser too :'(

cheers ;D

Wow!  Excellent job on this.  It looks great!  Are you planning to go any farther with this?   Regardless, it's a nice little RPG. ;D  Wonderful job! :D

However i have added in the use of the sub( command.

Do you mean school work when school starts or Summer school work? I hope it's the later, else it would suck if you could not find time to code the game until next June :(

Ok I figure its time to show that I actually have been working on this.
Added a menu by pressing 2nd on map.
Chucked most basic menus.
All pauses are passed with the 2nd key (I think)

Would like ideas on features/story
