Furthermore, here are some tweets from last year when I started polishing a few of the minigames that appear in the game. You might enjoy a small look at their progress:

Oh hey! I'm Lance, the guy making black annex, I work on it quite often! It's really just a hobby project for me, as I left my day job recently, I'm a stay-at-home dad now, and I work on an unrelated YouTube channel for a little income that keeps me busy. I update the steam page sometimes, new screenshots and whatnot. It's just very slow going haha.

I'm really happy to see this show up in my Google Alerts haha, sorry it's taking so long but I promise I work on it and I'm really, REALLY enjoying it :D

It uses whatismyip for a (pretty dumb) added function related to finding your WAN IP.

It's compiled, not interpreted. You have no idea what I'm doing over here.

Yeah, I was really shocked by that angle when I saw it in the article. It's pretty bad.

Heya, yeah I don't use 3rd party libraries but the compiler hooks SDL to do the screen init work.

If I get on Steam, I'll be able to use the DLL features to implement SteamWorks API

Yeah, the game's written in the QBASIC language but I certainly don't use QuickBASIC 4.5 or PDS to compile it.

Hey, my cousin/your girlfriend just linked me to this. Thanks!

Hey, guys! I'm the guy making this game! :D Yeah, I compile it in QB64 and use the SDL hooks in it to actually make it run on windows/mac/linux. But yeah, QBASIC has all those things you mentioned already.

Also, yeah, I use the big ugly eye-burning white-on-blue screen. You can see a photo of the development box here: https://twitter.com/manfightdragon/status/319786194395357185
