Okay folks, some of you were actually alive and using computers when #hypercard was a thing.
Tell me about your hypercard memories.
Did you make weird games or hypertext novels? Are any of them still out there? What were your favorites?
(I'm working on a thing, I need info.)
@ajr i WISH i still had any of my hypercard stacks. no idea if they're still on some backup medium somewhere. i actually have some backup *tapes* kicking around (i forget the format!), but no tape reader to read them :(
@bunnyhero No cassette deck?
If you know which computer they came from, interpreting those audio files is actually normally pretty easy. Some emulators can load them directly.
@ajr they're not audio tapes, they're the specialized digital backup tapes, like the kind described in this old article (alas, the images are broken :( ) http://www.macworld.com/article/1014410/16reviewstape.html
@bunnyhero Oh, gotcha.
