So from the web thing, which I'm assuming is how the story goes, is there any way to win? Or is it kind of just a never ending thing?

Yeah that me giving myself a graphic flow of choices. Yes you will eventually "win" and you can die lots, so it depends on your choices. There is one part that can be an infinity loop :p

storyline is the one part of a calculator program which is limited only by the imagination of the writer. this sounds amazing so far; good luck!

This is cool Eeems.

Some of the first games I played on my trusty ol' Commodore 64 were 100% text based adventures. Glad to see people still want to create and play games like this. They are a lot of fun!

Thanks guys :)
This is all about the story. I guess im writing this as an attempt to creativly use my recent hurts because its kind of dark, but in a poetic way :)
Im just hoping i dont have to split it into two chapters x.x i might not have enough room for it all in one program x.x

Yeah unfortunately text gets rather big eventually and it's hard to compress :(. Good luck!

well, there's always huffman.
and, because a game like this is mostly text data, this is one of the few situations where an asm program would be considerably smaller than its basic equivalent!

lol yeah :P and my routines for text aren't that big I don't think, I could take out all the data and try compiling and see how big it is...

how would huffman apply?

just take the same method commonly used for pictures and apply it to text.
e's appear a lot, for example, so make 10 indicate an e and save longer runs(like 111110) for less common letters like Z and X
