- kevindamm 2y agoI can't think about QBasic without thinking about that game with primates throwing bananas across a city at each other. Like a simpler version of Scorched Earth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillas_(video_game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillas_(video_game) also Money, and REMLINE
- wvenable 2y agoNo love for NIBBLES.BAS? I played that way more than Gorillas. And Scorched Earth -- that's a name I haven't heard for a long time.
- BeFlatXIII 2y agoModding that game was my first experience with programming (and introducing bugs, but I repeat myself)
