[4x3][the game][Z80][TI 84] The Game: Contest Edition

Hello! So, at the last moment i decided to make something to make something for the 4x3 challenge.

In The Game: Contest Edition, the aim is to find the correct key.
At the start, the game randomly picks a key, and it's up to you to find it!
if you find the right key, you win. Else, you lose the game.

it also features a special escape key, enter. But who would use that right? i mean it's such a thrilling
game, you wouldn't want to end it before you win, right?

[spoiler]

[/spoiler]

also: you lost

Guess I lost again :/

He he mucho funny. I will win the game befr it even starts.

also quite ironically: if you play the game and win, you also lose the game

then again, if you lose you lose 2 times. 2 games in one since you keep getting reminded if the game.

Wait, we can actually win the game?

Anyway interesting idea I guess.

Also you can't lose the other game more than once every 30 minutes.

Also I made a non-4x3 version of The Game a few years ago in TI-BASIC on the home screen. It was 26 bytes large and is probably the smallest TI game ever.

At first i though of you only be able to lose, but i thought that would not really be a game

Actually that's a bit true, especially considering it's a game contest. But again I remember people submitting Conway's Game of Life to game contests in the past, which isn't even close to a game.

Well, it's a 0 player game.

Also, the white bear

* JWinslow23 runs

* JWinslow23 hopes someone will make that a thing, and the associated hashtag will be #TheWhiteBear

White Bear: Contest Edition? Though thats a bit late now

You would have to find a white bear in a snowstorm or something

What is that white bear thing about? I searched Google and Know Your Meme and found no relevant result...

That's because it's not a thing...yet

It's apparently a game Leo Tolstoy used to play: to stand in a corner and not think of the white bear. What white bear, I'm unsure of.

I remember someone mentioning that a couple of years ago. You're not allowed to think of a snowbear for five minutes. The problem is that you have to think about the snowbear to remember not to think about the snowbear. Only if you RAMcleared after being told not to think about snowbears, you win. But you'll probably always lose.
