When I was about 12 my father gave me a copy of VB6.

I used form and image controls to made a pixel based tiled fighting game. Not an actual game engine. Just a horrible hack that actually worked and I was proud of it. It was one of those things that helped me get into programming.

(I still have a copy of it.)

I remember implementing a Conway's Game of Life in VB6 with a grid view's cell background colors. Good times.
