A start is a start. :-)

I played the version on the FreeBASIC Games Directory, but the frog often refuses to respond to my keyboard commands. I'm using Windows 7..

why do all my bugs have to be so mundane :( When we stretch complexity in some new dimension we often lose sight of another dimension. I did not carry the complexity of your project in my head, so I must approach the question from a direction of simplicity. Any solution I provoke from you must ther...

Awesome jungle.

Ok then, so ... Drawing up a tentative all-encompassing command list now... 1) Download getlibs somehow. 2) sudo apt-get install ia32-libs (note: doesn't work) sudo apt-get install git sudo apt-get install binutils-dev sudo apt-get install libgpm-dev sudo apt-get install libffi-dev sudo apt-get inst...

Not sure what the point of disallowing robots is. Malicious robots will go through anyway.... and site gets fewer hits and dies.

If I press the button to restart, or if I get a mine, the next screen just keeps showing the new map, complete... no more gameplay...

Nice, but..
The restart / new game commands don't seem to work right.... it just ends right away.

I disagree on this entirely. * You can see how a more simple game will look and feel much more comprehensively than a monster. * Programmers can make good game designers, while game designers (and self-styled game designers...) often cannot program at all and require either money or power to have pr...
