Lol @ the port to 86 
I might create axe for writing computer programs (parsed, but faster )
Also, I will add colors then. Will post a topic about it when starting the project.
YES PLEASE!

your teacher takes your calc away and you can't do math any more

When you realize that it's not a dream and you actually came to school without your pants on.

New Nymless!
Newness:
Rectangles of shimmer flip between solid and hollow for a frame when you bounce off them
New Menu option, Wipe, clears out the current level. WARNING: Wipe does not ask for confirmation before clearing your level, so make sure you have saved your work!
You can now pause Nymless! Press 5 while playing to pause, any key to resume
The Nymless savestates are much, much smaller now! (from ~850 bytes to ~90 bytes)

Weirdly enough, L1 is actually a buffer, but you have to move the built-in variables before you can use it as such, because the Axevars are stored at the end of L1.

Amazing. I love games with plotlines 
* Freyaday trips over a plotline Who put that there?

Axe is not good for trying to make a shell or GUI API.
Now I wanna make an Axe GUI.

I'm just curious, but does axe already have a function to absorb TI-OS Strings?
No.

I came here because of Axe. I had been programming in BASIC for a while and, when I heard about Axe, I was hesitant. I knew about the power (THE POWAH!) and what it could do if used wrong (Who am I, Uncle Ben?).
To cut the melodrama, I was afraid of crashing my calc. (and wrecking a few other things in the process)
But as I heard about all the awesome stuff Axe could do, I became more and more excited--GREEEEEEYYYYYYSCCCUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLAAAAAAAALLE!!!!! (It was cube runner that did it. I never actually downloaded, but I was so impressed by the screenshots and the hype I thought "Holy Crap, I wanna do that!")
So I got Axe.
And then I needed help.
I was trying to port a drawing program I had over to axe--or something. I dunno. I hesitated, for reasons that still don't make sense.
I still use BASIC occasionally, when I need to write a quick math program or something, because it's easy, and when you need the floats, you need the floats.
One of my favorite programs was a Basic program that made clamped cubic splines off of inputted points (no arg Input ftw), and I did the graphing manually, because I wanted to let you go backwards, which I did. Loop-de-loops! The only thing you couldn't do was have two consecutive points line up vertically. In otherwords, you couldn't go straight up, because vertical lines are not functions of x (SCIENCE!MATH!). I was so proud of it, and I had lots of fun playing with it, and you could not do that in Axe, not without a program much, much larger in size. You'd also have to use floats, because the precision required cannot be contained in a mere 16 bits.
But the program I was most proud of was a BASIC AI that played another BASIC game of mine. Unfortunately, I lost the selecting engine to it, but I am now trying to put it back together in my spare time.
I love Axe, because of what I can do. But sometimes, it isn't the right tool for the job. So, yeah.
Calcs FTW.

Awesome idea. I hate when I get a RAM clear and have to restart everything from scratch.
As for link cables, sadly they're not available in any stores so people have to use Ebay (which is impossible for people under 18) or buy an entire new calc that comes with a cable, but USB is definitively a huge challenge. Even today I think the USB protocol isn't documented completely. There's a reason why so few games and programs has USB support.
Unless Freyaday meant his USB catgirl thing?
USB catgirl is afraid of TI products, so sadly, no. As DJ_O said, link cables are hard to come by. I had to assemble mine out of audio parts, and it doesn't even fit calcs that have recessed link ports (I hate recessed ports), while the USB cable came with the calc. I've never played a multiplayer calc came, and with a game awesome as this is looking to be, I really wanna be able to experience the whole thing.

Perhaps the absorbing syntax could be just having appvAPPVAR->constant on a line, similar to how it is with programs.

2428: You put your calc on a scanner and scanned it (true)
2429: You did it just to see what it would look like (also true)
2430: You use the result as walpaper for the walls that aren't covered in the Omni background (would be true if I liked wallpaper)

Those are both much slower than a RectW() would be.

Erm that sounds kind of akward. X.x
You have no idea. Neither of us have any idea what we're doing. It's a great read though.
