Saw something like this go around last year and forgot to take part so let me ask, Devs what was:
1) the first game you played?
2) game you love from childhood/teen years?
3) the game that inspired you to become a dev?
4) game that inspires you to be a better dev?
#gamedev

1) First game I played? Probably Donkey Kong Jr., or maybe some Snake clone for DOS...
2) Game I still love from teen years? Clearly Settlers 2: Veni, Vidi, Vici. It's still great, and imho the best Settlers.
3) The game that inspired me to become a dev? I'd say: Kerbal Space Program.
4) The game that inspires me to become a better dev? Dwarf Fortress. It's amazing that this game is still maintainable, despite its complexity.
