Sheeit mang. I remember back in my 80s that I had to type up a whole program from a book. That's right, you bought a game and there were no disks, it was a book of code. I'd spend a few days typing that thing in to play baseball on my tandy coco 3. The best thing in the world was when I got that tape drive and didn't have to type in programs more than once.
It was a great way to learn coding though. Started with changing sounds then colors and so on.
