Can't recall its name, but it was written in Assembler, ran very fast (much faster than e.g. ST Pascal) and did everything in RAM, and thus felt a bit like TurboPascal.
Accidentally, I discovered a certain key combination activated a microscopic BASIC interpreter that was integrated (undocumented); I wrote to the developers to learn that I was the first to find it.
I loved the flight simulator and a doom game in excel. Also a few programs had hidden functionality in the about menus.
I suppose my favorite of all time was a hidden menu in an oscilloscope that caused it to play I believe it was pong or some other simple arcade game.
One that if I ever have the time is I want to reverse the very antiquated Apple II or IIgs Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego game, by chance I hit a key combo and the game went beserk.
Power and loyalty is everything these days. Surrender to corporate or perish. All whimsy is to be management-approved.
It’s definitely a bit sad to see Easter Eggs be less common these days, but I do understand how it’s not always the best practice.
