I got my start on a Radio Shack Tandy TRS-80 Green-Screen I bought off of my schools end of the year sale for $5 or $10. The power supply was blown so I learned hardware repair, & after it was fixed I realized I couldn't do anything w/ it because it didn't have anything except word proccessing software. So I started learning BASIC & Assembly. By the end of 4th grade I had finished my 1st mostly txt/mud based RPG. Battles were peek/poke'd stick figures lol. I kinda patterned my life around those 2 skills since. I remembered all of the games mentioned, however Diablo 1&2, StarCraft, Total Annihilation, & Acclaim's Machines: Wired 4 War hold a special place in my list. They were so well planned & unique unlike the majority of Pre-βeta monitized clickbait out today. I later got into modding/hacking via binary/HEX 4 both D1/D2 creating custom equipment & weapons. years later & used to sell full sets of custom equipment to ppl for Diablo2 SP/LAN games. I still own 2 sets of D1, 1 of D1/Hellfire(c/o Sierra), 1 Battlechest w Prima Guides of D2+LOD, & 2 other D2+LOD sets 4 LAN games. Anyways, thanx for many years of fun, inginuity, & code-wrangling opportunities.
