Look, believe it or not, I started using a PC at the end of 2024 to make a game that I'll talk about in this post. I was going through a very strange phase;
I had just dropped out of a school that I REALLY hated and that made for a sad and frustrating year (it was a religious school, I don't have a religion, and people kept hammering into my head about "how good Jesus is,"
plus it was a full-time school with forced English classes (we even had to call the Portuguese teacher "Miss" in English, literally "Miss").
I was starting to make horrible websites with pure HTML, hosted with NeoCities (sadly, I deleted the site). It was my first personal website.
Look, I still use the same PC today, a Dell Inspiron 3647, 4GB RAM. I never played many demanding games, but suddenly the Windows boot broke, and I had to call a technician, but then...
This is what I started with: green Windows 7 theme, Habbo Hotel, music like "Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven, "Bodies" by Drowning Pool... here's a picture of my desktop from that time
other stuff: in this time, i was developing a roblox game called
kopcity
(yes, it has that damn Fire Ring from SFOTH on the wallpaper).

Now, I'm a guy who plays a lot of CS 1.6, Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition, starting to program for real, I use SpaceHey a lot, Winamp... that kind of thing, and besides that, I use a Windows 10 identical to XP, with all the programs and everything.
