When I was a kid my brother and a friend and I would spend hours punching games into a C64 out of the back of byte or compute magazine. We would work in shifts, one typing, one reading, and one proofreading to make sure what was said is what showed up on the screen. Usually by the time we were done it would be 4 a.m., so we would play the game for a little bit and then carefully tuck the C 64 in the corner so nobody would trip on the power cord. We didn’t have the floppy or tape drive, so the game only would live for as long as the power was on. Good times. The best was when there was a typo or a bug or it just didn’t work. Esp. the machine code that was just pages of hex. |
