What? My spantogrifthen used to be trogammatic, but the previous owner messed it up. I’m here because I want to redo the trograming on it myself. Is this not a DIY sub?
I like American music. Do you like American music? I like American music, too.

no, this is earnest anti-commercialism


Drug Wars!
Or y’know, a bowdlerized knockoff.


Why does it need to be commercially viable? What’s wrong with doing it for love of the game?
Cousin, read my comment again. Those links match what I just said.
They have different meanings, but you’re correct that <b> and <i> are fully deprecated.
If it gets rendered into HTML as <em> and <strong>, that’s the fault of the markup implementation, not the users.


Get me one while you’re out?


I would never do that. I’d just play it again.


aren’t there like five of those?


It’s not a competition. Get rid of that mindset.

Completely wrong. Anarchists who hate cyberpunk and want the opposite. Ecologically-minded communitarians. Idealists and hard-nosed pragmatists both.


automation is only profitable is you’re making absolute gads of exactly the same thing

It’s not python, but it wasn’t bad, either. More importantly, it was all I had.


I made a clone of Drug Wars in BASIC on the Commodore 64 in…1993? 94? Thereabouts. I have the floppy but no drive that can read a 5¼ disk. I taught myself to type on that beast and then I taught myself BASIC from the book that came with the (used) system when we bought it.
My second game was a text adventure in BASIC that used GOSUB to spawn mobs, heavily inspired by the MUDs I had just started getting access to by taking a course on using the Internet at the local college. I never finished it, because then we got a Win '95 box and with it Heroes of Might and Magic.
My next several dozen games were made using ZZT, with one or two browser-based mixed-text-and-image adventures thrown in as I was also learning webdev.
Oh wait! No, my first couple games were made on Hypercard in the 1992-3 schoolyear when I first tested into the gifted program and started getting consistent weekly access to a computer lab.
Anyway, that brings me through the end of highschool, and in college I learned so many more languages but also had a lot less time for game dev.

See, this is the advice I came here for!
It’s not perfect but should hold until I can get to a Lowe’s.
