Obscure Chill Stream 12/28/2024 - Time to check out some ZZT Worlds. For old time's sake.

Wow. ZZT. I remember when I was in the same college with Tim Sweeney (UofM College Park), when he was putting his ZZT games on the computer labs there. Met him in person before Epic became a big thing.

That's an interesting bit of history to share - thank you! I can guess what the answer to this question is, but in the unlikely case I'm wrong: do you have any ZZT-related floppies or files from that time period?

[@akaimizu1]

@@asciicharismatic I don’t have them. Heck, it’s even amazing I still have a number of working Amiga floppies from the same time period. They mainly stayed on the computer lab computers, but hardly did people copy the files, from where they were installed, and put them on floppies themselves. They were just games people would find in places like the Centreville Computer lab in UofM College Park.

Man, my copy of the anarchist's cook book didn't have the recipe for flesh eating nerve gas milkshakes. I feel ripped off
