Saw this on Hacker News; it’s an ongoing compendium of classic BASIC games, rewritten in up to 10 accepted programming languages; as well as space for “alternative” languages.
Why would anyone want to change from BASIC?

This looks incredibly cool and fun. Would be interested trying to re-write some of the games myself when I have some free time.

It has only been about 44 years. I expect to have some time next week.
