It's one of those NSFW Nutaku games. I started playing it in a whim, as I was bored and my old computer was having a hard time running actual games. Nowadays I play it mostly to improve the bot that I made for it.
that's awesome. fuck grinding in games like that, I bet programming a bot is more fun.
It is! Without the bot I would've ditched the game years ago. And while the bot itself is for something that I don't care about, coding it forced me to learn stuff that turned out useful elsewhere, like:
xdotoollooping.caseallowed me to create a script that extract most compressed files, regardless of extension. I hate using the GUI for this sort of menial work, but I never remember the actual commands to decompress files.whileloop that detects if my bot should stop ended in another script, that detects if the internet is back.I'm still no programmer, mind you, but for someone who was simply using Linux instead of learning it for 2 decades, it was a huge step up.
