Cap'n Magneto was my favorite game growing up, along with Dark Castle. I also spent a ton of time writing World Builder games and Hypercard stacks later. I doubt I would be a programmer today, if BASIC and world builder hadn't been so easy to use. Later, I tried to write a tile based RPG in Pascal but I didn't have the attention span or help I needed to complete it. (Not to mention not having a copy of Inside Macintosh)
I'm glad the ease of use of the early macintosh has made it into every device now. Hopefully the ability to tinker, mod games, and program easily doesn't go away as systems become more sanitized and locked down. The original web browser had an editor built right in.
