It's 5:46 AM and I'm extremely tired...but at least I've almost finished my game by now

Finally submitted

Darl181 did your calc got run over by a car or something?

No, it just got dropped sometimes, also spent a lot of its time in my backpack (That same backpack has a tendency to make notebook covers rip off and non-heavy-duty binders normally end up breaking apart so..yeah )
Fortunately now that I'm out of high school I don't need to carry around all the garbage that I used to need (no more 6 classes in one day) so hopefully something like this doesn't happen again..

[DJ Omnimaga]

Actually in my case, college was even worse than hi school in terms of having to carry a crapload of books with me in my backpack, because the school was so big that our 10 minute breaks between classes was not enough to go to our locker. It sometimes took close to 10 minutes to reach another class. But yeah I know Juju's calc screen knew a similar fate in his backpack a few years ago.

I have 5 TI-84+SE just in case

[DJ Omnimaga]

Lol you should give one to Leafy or sell it to him for cheap (assuming you got any for cheap or for free). He got his calc stolen and had to quit calc programming due to it

I would do it with my 83+SE, which is the only 83+ compatible calc I no longer use that still has a working link port, but it has a battery problem causing power to be drained within a day or two if the calc remains turned OFF. He would have to remove the batteries everytime he stops using his calc, which, in turn, would wear out his lithium battery, eventually causing RAM clears upon putting AAA's back in.

Idk, I have a lot less in my bag now, seeing as the bag I got a few months ago isn't ripping apart yet, but I'm biking five miles one way so..maybe it's less wear? The sidewalks are in pretty bad condition so there's a lot of bumpiness and stuff.
And atm I only have one class.

Any with extra ram pages?

Loljk, I'm just going to use this as a reason to learn C to get started with the nspire/prizm, and have the 84 to fall back on/hopefully finish some old projects.  Also jump start for learning a language more applicable in real life

[parserp]

You mean you can't get a job coding axe?

* parserp rethinks his life

[blue_bear_94]

Axe is a calculator language. There are few, if any, paying jobs for programming calcs. C, however, is used for computers as well.

[squidgetx]

blue_bear, i'm pretty sure parserp was being sarcastic facetious

[DJ Omnimaga]

I think he was kidding. But yeah C for the PRIZM and Nspire would be nice. Also we could use a few more PRIZM coders indeed, along with Juju, to make games. Hopefully you don't quit calc stuff though.
