Back in those days there also was a game which i can barely remember: There were two monkey any you need to throw bananas at each others over or through skyscrapers... Does anyone know what game that was?

Gorillas, on QBasic.

This game basically got me into programming, because you could easily edit the source code and then see how the game changed.

Same, though I didn't edit Gorillas itself. I played that as a kid, then later (c. 2000) in my Intro to Programming class in middle school, I cloned it in Pascal. I even randomly had it select a day or night background, with a randomly positioned sun or moon. Still think back on that fondly :)

QBasic Gorillas (gorilla.bas).

The only skyscraper game I remember was the one where you're flying a plane that's getting lower and lower and you have to bomb the scyscrapers before you crash into them.

Probably not a game that would get made today...
