This is so lovely to see! ZZT got me into programming in a very holistic, human, way. I'm happy that it's being explored.


Me too! I spent an entire summer when I was 11 making a weird adventure game in ZZT using the scripting tools. It was pretty fun!


Same, although I wasn't that hardcore into the programming aspect as I was later in life; conversely, I had a friend of mine (who had his own PC and unlimited time on it, grr) who went a lot further with it.

But that wasn't an indication for future life, he's a sysadmin-on-wheels now while I'm a pretty decent programmer.
