This C64 BASIC Game Was Broken By a Single Number!
A viewer sent in their Commando Sub BASIC code — it kept crashing with an ILLEGAL QUANTITY ERROR. One number. That was it. One wrong number in one line broke the entire game. This is Commando Sub — a type-in BASIC game from the golden age of 8-bit computing, originally published for the Commodore 64. One viewer typed it in, one number was off, and the whole thing fell apart.
