OK, so DarkBASIC is too cheap, FreeBASIC is too hard, Python doesn't compile, BlitzBASIC is 100% commercial, and everything else is way too complicated. I want a robust, yet portable game development language that requires very little to run, and cross-compiles to pure machine code for a variety of platforms, with Python-style syntax, but classic BASIC keywords. It would also be cool if you could just put an asterisk in whenever you want the program to just put in a value for you, and if stuff could be processed before the program opens by adding a # to the beginning. I want to be able to write a game like this:
#include *
#screen(*,*,*)
#cd(*)
#setmusic(*)
#loadworld(*.bsp)
playerusecontrolinputandphysics()
loop(*)


write your own like a boss

I want to! I want credit for that! I want it to be my own software! All parameters are optional, all variables are strings, all functions are dynamic, and everything is fast!

Maybe when you actually program something you'll understand why things are done the way they are.

it was your 777th post

this is the worst dream anyone has ever HAD

my NIGHTMARES are full of compilers

Don't listen to them, Thunder.  Standards and practices are for suckers.  Why do something the same way everyone that's ever done it successfully does it?  Fire ain't gonna re-discover itself, Proto-metheus!  Get out there and write the perfect compiler, one which will save you the work of programming, right after you do a hundred times more unnecessary programming work beforehand!  RE-INVENT THE WHEEL, SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO!
