Nostalgia! I used to love playing with QBasic. Me and a few friends would sit in the computer lab at lunch when we were maybe 11/12 and play with it, which was weird as I was the only one actually interested in programming. I remember being very proud of reverse engineering how BMP (I think?) files worked (pre internet days!) and writing a program that could (very slowly) render them in QBasic. There was a guy a couple of years above us who fancied himself as a bit of a hacker (I remember he edited the boot sector of the library computers to infinitely reboot…) would make proper “demo scene” style programs in QBasic which was pretty impressive, I wonder what became of him! Would be kinda fun to go back and play with it with a deep understanding of programming, and see what is actually possible if you really understand it.
