Question: Did anyone beat the game with 0.2+ seconds remaining?

devi-ever 2013-08-28 05:25

Yeah, couldn't get it to run.

Didn't rate since I can't play it, the "only works in Windows 32 bit" thingy is gonna cost you a lot of players. @_@

Ah, a 16-bit executable :)

On the first try I wrote marshmallows, pressed enter and it went nuts ;)

I couldn't get even past the first try (I must be particularly dense), so I just looked them up in the source code O:). Just a simple guessing game, but I do like the spirit of not giving up even when your main game fails. Reminds me of some of my own LD attempts where I just threw in the towel instead of at least finishing something.

For anyone who wants to play this, you can run it inside dosbox.

I have no idea what I just downloaded and run, it gets into an infinite loop when I type "Marshmallow".
10/10 for the C code though.

The answers are all integers, says the info. Damn, what an epic fail for me. :O

"Convert with the A1Z26 cipher and add all the numbers."

Got it to work in DosBox even on Win 7 x 64
Integer-only input is a bit tedious, especially the cipher conversion takes a lot of calculation. Might be a great educational program for highschool IT, letting them learn binary, octals and mathematical patterns :D
