A brutally authentic HyperCard clone running on the web. 😮I'd love to see a more modern take on HyperCard, but this is neat, too. Would be nice if you could import old HyperCard stacks to it. beyondloom.com/decker/index.…

Today I learned... the Fujitsu FM TOWNS system had its own equivalent to Apple's HyperCard, or Microsoft's Visual Basic, called TownsGEAR タウンズギア which featured its own scripting language called GearBASIC

Thx @mihai for transporting me back to the '90s with system7.app Mac OS 7 in a browser. Need to update my @HyperCard stacks... More info: blog.persistent.info/2022/03… #nostalgiaware

One idiom that Hypercard (yup, I'm old...) had that I've not seen replicated on the web: lockscreen. Prevented the screen from updating until you were done with the transition.

What's this? Why it's a mouse-controlled Super Mario Kart clone for Classic Macintosh! At the time of writing there were only 2 google search results and 1 image result for this game. blog.gingerbeardman.com/2021… Another discovery from my collection of Japanese Macintosh magazine CDs

Best @HyperCard stack ever.
I found a machine that was owned by a scientist

Ok, I guess my idea is close enough to the #LD48 theme of “deeper and deeper”. Honestly, since I do the jam I never really care about the theme. Been sitting on this idea for a few years now so this weekend I’m going to build HyperCard from scratch! Calling it #TinyCard. #Gamedev

dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3… is the best account. I didn't have much time to look at HyperCard before "Make It Look Like Java" management/marketing order killed HyperTalk syntax, but the onclick event handler convention stuck. I had a Mac IIci from early '90s but did only a few decks.

Story where the Macguffin everyone wants is not a magic artifact (they’re valuable, but it’s nothing that militaries, governments, corporations, or even rich enough private citizens don’t have already), but something like HyperCard.

Building a commercial “stack” with alpha version of HyperCard 2.0 in 1990 (code name “Snow”), I encountered the following alert, just prior to a crash. (That’s Bill Atkinson’s pic.)
