I want to make a simple text-based RPG. The problem is I only have a phone, and I don't know which programming language I should use. I was thinking of maybe assembly, but, I'm lazy, average IQ stupid, and I'm barely getting anywhere with that.

What resources do I need? Maybe I could do all the programming at the library and save shit to a USB drive, but, libraries in my area are pozzed to the point that you probably can't upload/download anything on them, for safety reasons.

I really want to do this. I've had the idea for this game for months, but have gone only so far as to complain about how my idea doesn't exist yet, on /v/ and /b/.

Organize it on paper, write some pseudo-code to conceptualize and try to have some actual minor coding ready for a computer whenever you can get ahold of one. You'll be able to test and build from there. Just write small pieces of code and ideas and slowly put it all together on paper. You'll not only have a firm foundation in theory, but be able to put it into application in a n incremental, organized, timely, flexible but dynamic way.

Buy a raspberry pi (or whatever /g/ thinks is better) for 40 bucks and learn some python. There's no reason not to have some sort of desktop. I don't know about python but I know there are some apps for javascript on iphone. Don't bother though. Coding on a phone is like doing dentistry with a rusty screwdriver. Don't do it.

>writing anything in assembly

on a computer that would be painful

on a phone it would be absolute torture

you really do need a computer to do programming, I would suggest C#, C++, or python

and use paper

it's not rocket science you just have to keep working at it until you're satisfied and not get distracted

You don't need to be particularly bright to write assembler. In fact, unless you're an idiot, the first thing you do is probably to implement a higher-level language instead of doing everything in ASM.

There's a really neat library for doing pseudo-textmode programs: libtcod. I remember this being a Python thing, but it seems to be written in C. It probably has a built-in Python binding, so that you implement the game logic in Python, while calling out to a C library for the graphics routines.

So slap down $100 on a used laptop or something and get at it. I mean, don't be a pussy; that's only five blowjobs.
