I'd vote for Éric Chahi's Another World/Out of this world, Jordan Mechner's Prince of Persia and maybe Chris Sawyer's Transport Tycoon.

Very cool! The sad thing is that I figured out that I didn't have a single mp3-file on my computer. Things have changed.

Congratulations on the new release, it's really amazing!

I'm a web developer and nowadays I'm using a lot of React. I quite often end up switching to Chrome when I debug to get a useful error message/stack trace. Is this because Facebook has targeted Chrome or is it simply because Chrome has better error reporting? If the latter is the case, are you working on improving this?
