For anyone who isn’t a programmer know this is absolutely insane. Especially with so many complex graphics.

Me: "There's no way Roller Coaster Tycoon was that-"
"He coded the whole game in Assembly"
"HE DID WHAT?"

[cloutan]

"He was a solo programmer"
ok
"He coded this in assembly"
WHAT THE FU-

[Demonz]

Bro really decided he'd build a human body cell by cell 💀💀

[albertoossola]

For non programmers: this is the programming equivalent of carving Mount Rushmore with a nail file.

[ccnbutter]

you had me at "coded the entire game in assembly"

[sorashirogami]

You don't know this but when you mentioned Assembly I just straight up curled up and cried for a bit. Just... Cried. From the PTSD.

[Dxco]

coding a game with assembly is like he's drinking water with chopstick

[dsdy]

This is the only person who can put "talks to computers" unironically on their bio

I was ready to argue but this is a solid argument

[adityasubhedar]

There are more reasons why he is a legend:
1)He coded 4 games in assembly.
2)Each of the 4 games was successful.
3)None of the games he released had any bugs unlike modern games with millions of dollars of budget.
4)He understood the market.
5)No micro transactions.
6)He doesn't even want any publicity for what he had accomplished.

Creating a game in a literal billion dollar engine like Unreal is hard enough... This sounds like torture lol. I respect our predecessors a lot.

As a basic-level CS student, the main thing I’m getting from this is that this guy constructed all 7 wonders of the ancient world by commanding ants.

[TaliyahP]

I will never understand why he coded RCT in Assembly. Man was a pure masochist

[imofage]

He wrote that in WHAT?! Freakin legend. No wonder he got it to run on jank computers. I loved that game.

[femiabolaji]

You have to be a psychopath to code up an entire gui game, with that level of complexity in assembly. I respect this level of madness.

[lorddarkstorm]

Wrote it in assembly? what the fuck? As a programmer myself, fucking hats off to this guy. Holy shit.

My brother lost the dongle of a very important piece of software that he used in his company. The company that made it got acquired by another company and made that software obsolete, and they never cooperated with him when asked for a replacement dongle. He asked me if I could do something about it. I used a disassembler and tried to find the logical statement that checked for the dongle presence so that I could reverse it. I spent like 8-9 hours a day for a month just trying to locate that line of code. Finally I found it. But it was a brutal experience. I swear I had the weirdest dreams. If I had continued doing work in assembly language, Im pretty sure I’d have gone crazy.
