I wrote several computer games in 1985 - 1987 on my TI-99, one to replicate the "Track & Field" game that was in the arcades back then. I'd love to have a copy of that code today.

Did you have one of those? Do you remember "Sprites"? An animated graphic bitmap you could set in motion and it would keep going.

Cassette data storage and I had the Voice Synthesizer.

I was 16 years old at that time.
