WE HAVE A WINNER!!! Well done mate, you have won the ASCII BASIC GAME 10LINER!! https://itch.io/jam/ascii-basic-10liner

 Thank you so much :). I am very excited about the honor. I hope everyone really liked the little game. This award is another small opportunity for more people to touch the modest ORIC. Congratulations on the inspiring competition! :)

It was my pleasure mate. Love seeing the Oric in action. Send me an IM on twitter, as I have a wee prize for you.

This may sound ridiculous, but I don't know how to send a personal message on Twitter :). Twitter says: @loudscotsbloke can’t be messaged.

I think we need to be following each other. What's your Twitter id?

This is very cool - it's captured the feel of the game, but in 10 lines of BASIC!! Great work :-)
