Hi. I want to create GameBasic for the creation of games under DOS. It would support game-like graphics and sound and its own GUI. It would also support command libraries to extend the command set. What do you think?[/i]

Hey! Maybe this response is late, but I think it's a good idea.
A basic implementation for DOS is a good approach for learning and tech programming. The original Basic was created to provide a simple language for developers, to avoid complex languages like assembler.
Game Basic features
- Basic Interpreter with classic and enhancement features for sound and images
- Compile with C++ / DOS4GW (Watcom C)
- Simple structure for SIDE scrolling games.
Roadmap
- Create PACMAN
- Frogger and Galaga versions on Game Basic.
Happy Coding.
