When I was 10 I’d go over to my friend’s house to play Alley Cat and Shinobi. His dad had an IBM PC. Otherwise we played on my Commodore VIC-20, or went to play the arcade games at the local corner store.
I had a friend with a VIC-20 but it didn’t have a tape drive. We would play games on it, but we had to type the code for the games into it by hand first, every time we wanted to play. It’s wild how normal that seemed.
I had a big book full of games too which my dad bought me and I typed them in. Taught me how to code. But yeah at least I could save it to the tape drive!

Good times.
