- sgt 1y agoWhat does "older men" mean? Bunch of people got their start in computing with Commodore 64s in the early 80s yes, but also mid 80s, late 80s, early 90s and even mid 90s. So people who were kids in the mid 90s also fall into this group, and I don't think they are old.
- skeeter2020 1y agoIronic that the parent to your post calls out "old men" but sounds about as grumpy as you can get. They are right though; they don't get it.
- fifticon 1y agowe are 54 years old
- dartharva 1y agoGenZ (the smartphone generation) are adults today. Early GenZ are even in their late 20s. You are old, buddy.
- slow_typist 1y agoThere are even people who develop new games for the C64. And there is still an active demo scene I think.
- richrichardsson 1y agoYes, there is a very active demo scene, and frankly the people coding them are wizards. But not just the coders, the artists (visual/audio) are also wizards.
- the_af 1y agoYup, the C64 still has a scene. Both of nostalgics enjoying old games, and of people making (and selling!) new games for it. There are also communities for making C64 piel art and -- get this -- art doing entirely in PETSCII (sort of like ASCII art, but PETSCII has a more interesting set to work with).
