Are you planning to include those in the game?

I think I will I just haven't yet.  The reason they aren't in the real version yet is because I had forgotten about them. :)

Don't know what happened.... I downloaded and tried the game on WabbitEmu (not that I don't trust you, it's just that I didn't have access to my calc ;)) a few days ago (and it's ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, and tiny ... mind if I look in your code?), but when I tried downloading it again a minute or so ago, I got a 500 error :-\

Oh, Omni had a little downtime.  That happens every once and a while.  Try again now. :)

Thanks for the compliments!  You can look at the code all you want and learn from it. :)
Part of the drive for me to make this was seeing Absolute Insanity and saying I think it would be fun to make something like this.  So, Exodus is in part due to you. :D

I love the sprites.  Some of the best graphics I've seen in a pure BASIC game.  You even have some AI and can control the character without much drop in the frame rate.  Good job!

This is The BEST basic game I have ever played! At first I thought it was an asm game.

yay i got past them ;D This game is so fun, addicting, and god dammit, FAST!  I especially admire the way you handle the enemies, very ingenious.  Alright time to go and beat all the levels...

I still don't get that... :(

Scrolled through the game, but couldn't tell where the enemies were being taken care of.

EDIT: Oh, I see :O SourceCoder didn't recognize the solid and tokens. I personally remember this bug, since it rendered the first few releases of one of my games into a glitchy mess :(

Does Kerm know about the missing tokens?

Anyway, I get it ... the program goes through only one enemy every pass ... no wonder it's so fast. I've always wondered how Contra can claim that it "will not slow even if 1000 enemies were on a screen" ... ingenious.

Thanks.  I'm surprised I'm getting comments like this.  It's an honor. :)

I also agree that this is simply awesome. Congrats on the great program, ZTrumpet!

It's really a nice game. Nice job on it :)

Also sorry Deep Thought. It seems Omnimaga is hosted on a database server that is getting kinda overloaded in the past two months. It is even worse with TIMGUL, though (which gave me 500 errors every few minutes during the entire day despite the site being almost dead x.x)
