It’s 1:54 am… Yesterday I found an interesting machine code program for the Commodore 64. It is written by me probably at the age of 13, when I was learning C64’s 6510 assembly. But.. It’s a wonder, that it works at all as such.. In the video there’s the story and I will fix theContinue reading “I found this old C64’s machine code program!”

“Unlimited objects” in JavaScript
This “unlimited objects” effect is something I saw for the first time at early 90’s in Amiga demos. I’ve implemented this earlier in Monkey X. This time it’s implemented in JavaScript. The idea is, that there’s one moving object, the rest is real time animation… Video: The source code: The line, where CSS style isContinue reading ““Unlimited objects” in JavaScript”
THE VIC 20 available in October 2020!
I recently bought C64 Mini for 34,95€ and I’m satisfied with it for that price. But in October 2020 we’ll get a new product: THE VIC 20! Why should I buy THE VIC 20?

Old School: Rolling and Rotating Text in JavaScript

I’ve started to code my dream game :-)
I’m still big fan of C64’s Ultima IV & V. Since playing those games, I’ve wanted to make some kind of 2D Ultima game myself and now I’ve started… Though in my limited spare time, it will take probably quite a long time to finish this game. Not only coding takes time, but also toContinue reading “I’ve started to code my dream game :-)”
Demonstration of speed of C64’s basic
Ah, this takes me way back in time… Just wanted to test the speed of C64’s basic with a simple program of controlling a worm. The video: It was 1987 when I last coded with Commodore 64. ..and I admit it: I never learned 6502 / 6510 assembly well.. On Amiga I have done 680×0Continue reading “Demonstration of speed of C64’s basic”

After that, it’s easyContinue reading “VERY fun way to play C64’s Pitstop II”
