Is it just me, or is there a flood of BASIC games like nibbles or pong… If you are going to make a BASIC nibbles make it original, like a never-ending tail and shrinking walls, or make the dot move every couple of seconds. When you set out to make a game make an original one, instead of posting the billionth nibbles game out there! I at CDI Games strive to bring originality to the lot, but there is so many people trying to make the same thing. (Zelda, FF, Snake, or Pong) If you are going to make a game at least for our sake make it original, the people at OLS made a great BASIC Contra, Kévin Ouellet made the most awesome RL series and now Reuben Quest! Granted these use many ASM utilities but their original and great overall. I know we all learned to program simple games at first, but don’t release another nibbles… Make something original, fun, and so exciting that it’ll floor the whole community… Even if it doesn’t floor us, we need more original games, put your imagination to work! Please, we’d all appreciate it…
