ZZT, the game that launched Epic. Say, there's gotta be a ZZT community somewhere on lemmy, right?
I didn't realize anybody else had ever played that game. I downloaded that from AOL back when I was signing up for a free month trial every month from those CDs in the mail.
There's a whole community around self-made games using the editor that came with it, including a website full of games and a forum. A few years back one of us published a book about the community (and how we all turned out trans).
