Oh man, now that I see this I'm tempted to take out my old Pascal compiler to o something like this once more. I've only played a small part and it looks interesting so far. Good thing some people still create new stuff for DOS. How I long for that time that computers "just worked" (and if they crashed you always knew which program you shouldn't run anymore) :)

Please, do whip out some awesome Pascal!

I firmly believe we didn't explored the 486s well enough. And Pascal could use some vindication as well.

Hope you had a good time playing. Its a simple game, but gives me great sense of accomplishment and will help testing the grounds for something bigger.

Time is not on my side, as I'm in the middle of a big project already, but I will definitely put it on my "bucket list" to create another DOS game in Pascal. ;) It's a long time ago since I used that language last, so I fear I may have become a little "rusty", but that makes the challenge only greater, right ;) I did find just ONE old game of mine I coded in Pascal ages ago, and I posted that on Game Jolt, perhaps I should post that one here on itch.io as well ...

I liked what I've seen so far, but as I had little time to play it, I cannot yet pass a "full review", but at least I can say that the effort shows and that's worth a lot. I too believe the pre Windows95 days were a bit of the "golden age" for games... ;)
