Certainly a very nice collection of programs. Unfortunately, because I do not run Windows, I could only rate the two "browser based" programs. "Enemy Space" and "Web Basic". In a lot of cases, I can run Windows programs with varying degrees of success, but the Windows games required files and or installation of applications before they could run.
Of the two programs that did run, I found the game was quite good and I enjoyed playing it. The browser based BASIC has potential. It was a shame that the version of "Basic" was incomplete. Only a few commands and menu links to tinker with made the testing far to short... I hope WEB BASIC will be developed further after the Jam.

kennn I can't believe you already had the 3rd Jam. I am going to check out the games when I get a chance. I would like to enter one but I have been pre-occupied with other stuff lately.

Nope. I think that VB6 is being used to 'make' the game because VB6 'may' be classed as a Basic dialect... but I could be wrong... lol

The participants needs sincere encouragement and your voting will be encouraging for them. Meanwhile, your objective comments will be so inspiring for them. On the other hand, if you join a future jam and write an entry in RCBasic, the entry will be a very nice promotion for RCBasic.
