wow, it always feels magical and more closer than it has ever been when I read memories like yours!
I got my first computer in 2005, an AMD duron with xp onboard. The case was painted red, yellow and blue like it was made out of lego bricks.
Living in an apartment in the middle of nowhere, with no public playgrounds I could reach on my own, gave me a lot of time to sit and play:
That game was jazz in every possible sense!
Last but not least, there was this game which gifted me a rather unpleasant sense of 'uneasyness' when walking near tall plants for a while. It was a platformer under the sea, filled with these plants that would try their best to eat the turtle (player sprite). The bite animation left a scar on my kid's ass for some bizarre reason.
Later on I was gifter a gameboy advanced which I still use to this day, the only game ever played on it being pokemon leaf green.
Fast forward some years and I'm submerged in IT studies and small-projects.
Not that at this point it's a surprise, to be honest xD
