If people these days don’t know what rollercoaster tycoon is I’m going to start feeling way more old than I already do.
Comment on Anon appreciates Chris Sawyer

I know what Rollercoaster Tycoon is, I just can’t identify random game developers by their vacation photos.

That’s not the first game.

a video game
Not one, like 3 or 4 of them in Assembly, the Tycoon games.
Bro is a living legend.

Clearly not super well known.

Right? My first question was “Who the fuck is Chris Sawyer?”

Tom’s brother

No lie, I almost typed Tom Sawyer when writing my previous comment.

The dude or the game? The game, Transport Tycoon, is phenomenal, and you should try OpenTTD, which is a FOSS recreation of it by fans (not in assembly).

The fact that the OpenTTD devs made it compatible down to the save files and textures is nothing short of incredible. Like how much time and dedication does that take?
