That's one of the things I loved most about games in the 90s. Everything is a pile of hacks and tricks.

I remember doing "reverse engineering" on a bunch of those as a kid and I can definitely attribute my passion for software to those experiences.

I was actually feeling a bit disconnected from my career at the moment and reading this thread awakened some of the excitement that was sleeping inside me! The 90's are a huge source of nostalgia for me.

Edit: It reads better in a thread reader such as https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1372766463556083715.html
