Hello again, Try to speak english, as i am french Have tried lot of basic since 5 years... about 40... but the RC basic seems to be the best (for my personnal needs)... Pure Basic is great, lots of commands, and very very fast & powerfull, but need some practice, and GUI commands are complex
RC Basic looks like NAALAA and SDL Basic... same family... esay basic just for fun coding. I come back to RC as NAALAA seems a little less active, and SDL seems very old.
I love the virtual resolution in the canvas, without antialliasing, it is great for retro games ! More difficult to generate in other basics
I compile some questions :
Are there limits : of line of codes ? of sprites ?
Can it play sounds/zik MP3, WAV and MOD ?
Can we include the images and sound hidden into the standalone .EXE ?
Thanks

Are there limits : of line of codes ? of sprites ? You have 4096 image slots available. But you can store multiple frames on a single sheet and just use DrawImage_Blit() to draw a specific frame and the DeleteImage() command to free an image from memory after you are done with it. Can it play sounds/zik MP3, WAV and MOD ? You can play all those sound formats on most systems. If you are building for web you can only use WAV and OGG format. Can we include the images and sound hidden into the standalone .EXE ? Not for windows or 32-bit linux, but your assets are bundled when building for mac, web, ios, android, and 64-bit linux systems if you build on linux. I looked into supporting UWP on windows a while ago but microsoft has almost no documentation on it.

Thanks
1. I suppose we can download a hidden picture (320x200 for example) and declare lot of tile-variables by cutting 16x16 tiles on this hidden screen ? 2. Great for sounds ! 3. it's a shame for windows, as people can see all the tiles of your game (it is no good for a great project on Steam for example, or for an adventure games where people should have surprises)
It's one of the best basic for fun since BLITZ. So if can find help for : - building the assets on Windows - create stand alone with 1 file It will be the best world REAL basic langage of the universe.
