I remember when I first installed Omega for the PC.

I thought it was the greatest game ever made at the time. However, it was too easy to optimize and win. If I ever decided to create a game, I was definitely going to do something along the lines of a programmable battle simulator.
This is a long winded way to say that I'm VERY glad to see Zachtronics making games which assume there is a market for gamers who enjoy programming. I hope to see more like this in the future.
Side note: Just purchased this on Steam. Looking forward to cracking it open.

- omegafail 11y agoI tried the game but the game doesn't want to authorize my code even with the simplest example: Turn Tank Left 3. Do you have an example that works?
- karmicthreat 11y agoIts been over 20 years. You might need a start label before your commands. But I really don't remember that much about the language, at least not without setting up a copy.
