      Same. I remember my first magazine script-kiddie code. Whenever you pressed a key on the keyboard, the screen would change to a different solid color.

      Yup. I remember typing in a sort of blackjack card game, but it was mostly text and used verrrry simple graphics for the cards. More than 1,000 lines of code, “hand crafted” as we say now.

      OMFG I remember typing in code on my TI-99/4A and then saving it to cassette. I tried writing my own game, but could only figure out how to move one thing at a time on the screen.
