I failed! 35kb... I spent so long on this and it was coming in at under 20k and then today when finally finishing it off I got 55kb!!! WTF?! Anyway, I can't be bothered to trim it down any further so consider this disqualified but give it a try anyway. I'm proud of the submission despite it being too big, but I'm excited to finally move onto something else now!

I had this problem I couple of times, I found that if I used one or two specific built-in functions that it would make the file-size much larger, I think it's because the compiler needs to import more libraries from BRUN45. Although it could be something totally different as this was my first time using QBasic, or anything developed before 1998 for that matter!
