Sometimes I am curious about PureBasic's potential for game development because PureBasic does not look like a game language. Anyway, I see some discussions about game development in PureBasic here. https://www.syntaxbomb.com/index.php/board,56.0.html
in general PureBasic has some advantages for making games since it comes with all necessary functions to handle inputs and display the content. This makes it easy to get results quickly.
But there are also problems. It looks like using the Debugger leads to false positives on Antivirus software. (I had Kaspersky and Avira and both fought it).
It's pretty good overall but recovered as many gears and tedious. In addition, the robot's movements are a bit slow.
Otherwise, I noticed that the collision could stop lowering the time bar. I don't know if it's wanted. And then, the gear may get stuck in the air. Or sometimes the position on a tower is not in the right place.
The slow movements could be caused by an compatibility issue. On the PC I used to program this game (Win7) it is running fast. Later I tryed it on an other computer (Win10) and it was incredibly slow... I have no idea how to fix this except using an other programming language.
The other bugs are new to me. Thanks for the feedback.

Hello, your game looks nice and interesting!

Moreover, I found this webpage. The developer also uses PureBasic for the games.

Thanks for telling me these. Thanks a lot!
