Rescuing an old QBASIC game from 1996 and making it playable: Oval Racer gets revisited

Can I fix the flickery mess of my first ever QBASIC driving game, from 1996? Of course. It'd be worrying if I can't. But join me as I dive deep into vintage code, show some of QBASIC's weird optimisation rules, and even find time to dabble in the realms of classic DOS fixed-point polygon rendering. Yes, it's one of those. Have your copy of The Revolutionary Guide on standby.

I aim to publish all comments, including dissent, but overly pedantic or negative ones may be moderated. Hearing about different experiences and what things were like in other countries adds a lot to the video! Please try to do so in a positive way while remembering that if I had to explain every minor international difference the video would be 2 hours long and boring, rather than 21 minutes long and boring. Failing that, at least make me laugh. Bonus fact: all that music stuff refers to the battle for UK singles chart #1 4th-10th February 1965, between two cover versions of You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'. Andrew Loog Oldham, manager of the Rolling Stones, was so incensed at the poor taste of the British public (Cilla's version was ahead in the charts the previous week) that he took out an advert in Melody Maker at his own expense to point out how much better the Righteous Brothers version sounded - inadvertently coining the phrase "Wall of Sound" to describe Phil Spector's kitchen sink approach to pop music production. Wait, wasn't this supposed to be about BASIC?
