This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

older gamers like myself that are more than happy to take a trip down memory lane

Not only memory lane, but stuff like ROM hacks and randomizers can make new games from their retro roots. Hell I've gotten back into Doom in the past few years, and people just basically never stopped making new (free) levels for that since it came out 30+ years ago.

There's also the Quake Brutalist Jam 3 that came out last month. It's playable with a modern Quake I engine, and man, some of those maps are incredible.

All for the low-low price of $0.
