First game made - Randor

I actually found the game to be somewhat fun for a while, until I forgot to hit S to save my character.

It saves even if you don''t press s.

But only if you press esc to close. Being a dos app it won''t do any nice cleanup if you alt-f4 close it.

hey, very impresseive. can i ask how long it took you to make and how big the source is? thanks! also, did you plan anything out or just start coding? how much planning did you do? thanks

That was coded over about a year when I was just learning c.

Some of the code is horrendously bad as I didn''t know any of the c language at the time. I was setting strings one char at a time because I hadn''t yet learnt about strcpy().

The source code ended up being 93,881 bytes to be exact over 3200 lines. I hadn''t heard of make files yet so it was all in one file with most of that file being a single main program.

I planned very little out because I knew in my head what I wanted to do, create a zelda clone. Almost no planning and just lots of coding.

I''m remaking it now, I''ll be posting updates of how I''m going in a few weeks when what I''m working on surpasses what I have there.

If you want send you''re email to parthon at hotmail and I''ll send you the source and you can cringe at it.

only 3200 lines of code? damn.... my pacman like game has about that much code, its pretty much my first "real" game too (ive made pong before and a small ASCII RPG before)
