Text Quest... the reason why I'm learning C++ again.

Since (obviously) there is no trace of whatever this thing is online, I want to explain it to all of you.

Text Quest is a game I'm developing. I started work on it around August 8 of last year. It's a game made out of ASCII art. Only ASCII art. Sure there's music and sound effects, of course, but in terms of the visuals, it's (currently) 100% text art.

As of now, it's programmed entirely in Python. However, I've decided to instead continue development in GameMaker. Since it's based off of C, I decided to learn C++ and C# to get a better understanding of it beforehand. After I've finished a proper demo of the game, I'll publish a Kickstarter.
