does any one remember a brillient dos rpg called God of Thunder? I'd really like to make a re-make of it but I don't have the time. I'm working on about 5 projects at the moment! You can get download it for free from Adept Software's website, I don't know the address, just search for it on Yahoo. If any one is going to do a 3D remake please tell me! I would like to test it!

I remember that! Great game, helped by the fact that the little chap only ever seemed make noise - a sort of generic grunt noise. Ahh, classic gaming...

hehe! I'm not even the youngest! There is this kid called "agetenprogrammer" (his name kinda gives away his age)! I've been programming since I was 7! I started in QBasic then went on to BlitzBasic and now i'm obviously using DarkBasic although I still use BlitzBasic for 2D games

Tck. I wish I had a start like that, Dudeman - at my school, I don't think they even knew what a computer was, let alone how to program one.

It's a good job I'm a natural-born geek, otherwise I wouldn't have taught myself to program and I'd would have spent all my time occupied with Real-Life(tm). Phew! Close call!

I'm eighteen and at University now. You all make me feel old...

right........


I started my 1st freeware hueristic sensory evaluation and thought-enablement package when I was an egg. I had to give it up half-way through though (mum got fertilized).

I came out a fully formed programmer (bad hair, pot belly and a tendancy towards un-social hours).

I passed my hons degree in computer science/maths when I was 3 (a poor 2/1 admittely) and went straight from uni to Xerox where I helped in the design of the original WIMP graphical user interface.

After a short spell touring the world with The Rolling Stones as their after-gig entertainments manager I started my own company selling network os's to corperate America.

but you try telling the kids of taday that...
...... and they wont belive you......

from future review of next game....
'..while the programmer of this game may not be God-like he certainly represents the next step in human evolution. (10/10).'

by today's standards the ZX81 is sooo stupid (1mhz 1KB ram) hehe

Simple, don't do the homework. I mean, its completely worthless.

I started programming when was 15. Started with assembler.
