It's how I got into programming, which ended up turning into a career. All from stick figure murder animations and bad text adventures.

All from stick figure murder animations and bad text adventures.  I was so bored in math class I figured out how to program things like equation solvers. My math teacher found out and didn't really want to penalize me since I obviously understood the material well enough to write the things. He ended up bringing in some of his old college textbooks and gave me separate assignments to keep me occupied. Then I discovered the 000 section at the library and taught myself C++. I had zero plans to make a career out of it, I just wanted to build robots and program their microcontrollers, but it saved my rear end when I graduated into the economic implosion of 2008.

I remember my babysitter's family had a Vic-20 and I vaguely recall some text based adventure games. One with Dracula, and one was a more generic fantasy game.

If you had some sort of optical sensor attached to your Amiga/Atari/??? you'd place it over the highlighted circle and download the program. Haven't been able to find the TV show as yet. Was it Bad Influence? https://youtu.be/0RqQFWvhPbo

My neighborhood pirate had a tape system for his wares, which was VHS based. Basically, a VCR + an interface to plug into his Amiga.

Most classic CD-based games (especially PS1 games) had the music stored as audio on tracks 2 and up, with the game data on track 1. I remember occasionally games that would still play if you removed the CD mid-game but the music would cut out.

I remember that working for sure in Sledstorm, although I don't know why youd want to play anything else but Dragula. Maybe sub in the normal version of Dragula.
