Nice story! I included it in my BitBit Jam 3 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)

I used to love Q-Basic it's what I used to program on when I was a kid. This is really cool and charming, a simple concept that turned out to be a lot of fun.
I played it on dosbox in linux. Lots of fun! A typing game is perfect for a short game jam. It was the perfect length for me. I was so happy when I got to the ending screen, so blinky :)
Good job. I played this on Dosbox on windows. It should work with js-dos on web
I loved this game. A novel idea and perfect execution! I only wish it were longer :D
#bitbitjam3 This is my entry for #bitbitjam3 It is an RPG typing game that is designed to run on a IBM XT286 with CGA graphics card. It can be run in DOSbox. Princess Red Keyboard Karnage Warrior (C) 2016 demiO2 This game is an RPG typing game that was made for BITBITJam3
It was made completely by one person using Qbasic for MS-DOS.
It has been designed to run on a IBM XT 286 with CGA Graphics and 256k of RAM.
As I do not have a 286, I have tested this with DOSBox with the graphics set
to CGA and the cycles turned down to 600. It may even run on an original
IBM PC or PC-JR, but I have no way of testing it. There may be bugs, or errors, but this was made in the week from start to finish, so please bear with me.
This is my first graphical game completely written for DOS and it probably
shows. :) Please feel free to distribute this game freely and if you like it

Instructions
On the overworld, control Red with the arrow keys. Collect various items
and use them by walking into things. Doors, NPCs etc.
Occasionally (depending on the difficulty) a Keyboard Kombat screen will
appear. This is the combat section of the game. Just type the words that
appear on the screen and try not to make mistakes.
for added fun, if you type O and P on the overworld, it will change the
cOlor and Palette respectively. It's kind of fun to play with.
Enjoy the game and let me know what you think of it! Thanks!
