Messing Around with QuiteBASIC
So this QuiteBASIC thing is pretty cool. The nostalgia of programming BASIC hit me so hard after messing around I had to put on a Thundercats tshirt while watching Ninja Turtles, playing Pogs and listening to Run DMC. Seriously, I remember picking up a a dusty battered old book in the library circa 2nd grade ('92ish?) called How To Program Games In BASIC. Gosh I loved that book. Technically it didn't open the doors to programming for me, that honor belongs to this Batch File Programming book my dad got me. However, I really got interested after scouring that book. I wonder if I can find the code back from those days...
Anyways, I made a crappy Etch-A-Sketch clone, if you're interested click. The program's long so I don't feel spamming up my front page with 208 PRINT "blah blah" and 215 PLOT s, y, "some color or other"
I think I'll put together a few simple games or something in QuiteBASIC as I think that would be cool.

Awesome!
Do you mind if I put up that program as a project on the site? I'll credit it to you of course.
Btw, a nice way to publish Quite BASIC programs is to use the Project format as is when you "Save". That way the program gets directly loaded in the dev environment and opened in a new window.
