A meeting with cheese, bread, corned beef, olives, and soft drinks??? 
Luxury! It's obvious this isn't from the 2000s onwards. 
In those, you're lucky if you get a donut. 
Bugs, bugs, bugs. Yep, I remember trying to debug programs in VB, COBOL, Javascript and C++, and pulling my hair out.
I still do this, but in easier languages.
Text adventures are especially tough.
Thanks for sharing, Tawm!

Yeah, there's a few bugs in my little text adventure game Final Soul. I wish I still had the source code for it, I'd actually fix the stupid bugs.Rath Darkblade wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2024 1:13 am Bugs, bugs, bugs.
