simple algebra game

by Edmund for Workshop #123
Catch the correct algebra as it falls.
Mouse
;Well, this code is a disaster and an optimization nighmare.

;If anyone is learning to code, don't learn from me.

;drop me a comment if you read this

;simple algebra game v. 1.2

;3 11 2007

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

;;;;;;read me;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

;ever wish you could practice doing simple algebra?

;me neither

;but here's how you play the game

;use the mouse to move your player (that number in the <{}>)

;catch equations that your number completes to get points

;the higher your number is, the more points you get

;once you catch an equation, your number changes (or it should)

;if you don't catch the wrong equation, you lose points

;if an equation that your number completes falls to the bottom of the screen, you lose points

;the game gets harder as you keep playing

;there is a cheat to be used when you're frustrated

;it's somewhere in the code
