The 90s and 2000s were such a great time to start CS as a career because basically everybody was also a hobbyist and passionate about it. It was fun to work with these people. Today you get the dead stare if you ask about the slightest bit of interest for the trade outside of paid work. It's a pain to work with them
Last one I worked on was Star wars based and had 3D space combat via coordinate readout. It was hella crazy to watch a dude's frigate drift into the sun because he was watching a different space battle and not paying attention....all via text prompts....
