you can rewind and fast-forward a video but it's easier (imo) to make a scratch project and to get feedback on it

i'm sure you know about this issue, but if you don't, the escape codes are….buggy.

this code:
out \\{hello}
returns “\{hello}”, when it should be returning an error, because the hello variable doesn't exist. but even if it did, it would display “\” and the variable after it.
i actually did not know about that, thank you
lots of bugs been popping up ever since i used chatgpt to rewrite part of the interpreter :skull:
pls let me know if u find any other bugs, tomorrow first thing in the morning I'm fixing everything

ChatGPT can be used, But Id write it myself in my opinion. ChatGPT generated code tends to have bugs…

I wrote this code for the contest. It is completely valid but it stops for no reason after the first question due to a bug. Please fix!

I mean you can't really have a tutorial without art unless you just put text

how do you learn how to code on this programming language website?

I want to see what fun stuff y'all come up with

Obscure is a brand new programming language that I created
It's currently still in development, but works for the most part

To try it out:
1. Enter the website, you will see 3 sample projects

2. Open any project or create a new one to try it out

3. In the editor, you can click “Run” to run the project

4. You can also hit “Save” to save it, every project is stored
in your browser and will be there when you enter the page again

5. The full guide that shows all functions & their explanation is
on the navigation bar, called the Documentation

Please share on this topic any fun games or apps you make!

is there a way to make sprites?

that kinda stuff isn't even allowed on glitch, you should've reported it to glitch rather than avoiding anything using it

Yeah, I know, it's not like I didn't use it to rewrite part of an interpreter…
but I usually don't use unmodified ChatGPT code because of bugs

i added:
replace <item number> of <array name> as <value>
