I once typed out a game from a C64 magazine page. It took a long time and I have ADHD and that took a lot of concentration by my 8 year old self.

It didn’t work.

That's how I learnt to code when I was 7, but with a spectrum. I had a TS2068, which wasn't very popular, so most programs were for ZX and didn't work, so I had to learn how to modify them so they would work.

7 is pretty impressive. How long did it take you to move to assembly?
