one word: wow
that looks truly amazing for basic! i hope you have a fairly recent backup on your comp at all times, cause it would be terrible to lose a gem like that  |

Thank you man, looks like your Contra's one true fan 
Yeah, I know what you mean. I just backed it up today actually, And I have been doing so for a while. So no wrries there. Unless my comp crashes. NOOOOO
But I will definetely need help, once the engine is completely finished, on level production. That one frame took about like 2 days to make it look perfect. And it hurts my head looking at a program full of 8 digit numbers repeating. So its definetely time consuming to make a full level. But Im sure the members of UTI and OLSoft would not mind helping out !
Oh and as far as everyone saying that I should add graphics... Frankly I think it looks great for a BASIC game and that its the tightest I can make the levels look, and smallest memory consumption i can use for them.
Its BASIC what do u expect |

Hey guys... You think I should make Contra's own forum on the Board, that way I can keep all my stuff in one spot?
or do you think the project is not worth it ? |

Use a floppy, whenever you back it up on your comp, copy it to the floppy and put that somewhere safe (away from magnets and such  ).
