Quirky Test version 2 released!
July 5, 2025 5:11 PM
ParserComp was a wonderful opportunity for me to learn a new language. But I was still learning it when the deadline came. And while I'm proud of the initial produdct, I fixed up a lot in version 2. Thanks to all who helped -- there were a lot of you! In particular, Leon Lin, Tabitha and Wade Clarke gave help.

The big-picture changes:
--2 bonus points shifted to where they give an item that helps with achievements at the end, while 2 more sensible/fun bonus points replace them
--17 total achievements now
--graphics added and upgraded
--bonus points now carry over with each playthrough
--general bugfixing and text tweaking

The source for Version 2 clocks in at 368055 bytes (321017 if we get rid of the embedded graphics.)
