I’m going to post “Code is Just” here the same way as I did originally on Twitter, one day at a time, starting tomorrow. If you read and loved the original, as I know so many of you did, I’d feel grateful if you’d talk about it in your own words, though don’t feel obliged of course. 🧵👇🏽tomorrow

1982: I wrote Alien Attack, my first game, on an Atari 400, in BASIC. It had a custom character set for the alien (one at a time) and your spaceship. I advertised it in the Popular Computing Weekly classifieds for £5, for a week. Not much of a campaign. I sold zero copies.
