nice game with nice detailed animations.
the turn around of the ship is looking great.

status update: grafics - all sprites are finished. - the animations are great. - 5 backgrounds are implemented, inspired by the original IK with and without + - the rest of the game like decoration for scores, ... is done - to do - only some optimizations sound / music - only simple sounds for move...

Hi, Robbie, as pointed out by chysn, there's room for small routines in $02A1..$02FF (the so-called program indirects) ... 94 bytes more for my current project sounds good. i've tried to place this small test routine in this area (starts at $02a1): *=$1001 !byte $0b,$08, $e2,$07, $9e, $20, $36, $37...

I'm not sure that every location up to $8f can be used. For example : $cb stores the pressed key or $64 for no key. $CB is not in the range $00..$8F. ;) Also, "no key" is 64 decimal in that location, not $64. Ups! This is what happens when you lie on the sofa in the evening and answer thr...

I'm not sure that every location up to $8f can be used.
For example:
$cb stores the pressed key or $64 for no key.
Stored information will be lost here. I don't know if there other addresses which also used in ml.

Wow, well done. it's looking nice and smooth.
In which programming language is it developed?

Hi out there, in his latest video the 8-Bit-Guy is showing his new game project. It's a kind of adventure with petscii grafic for multiple commodore plattforms. Among others also the vic20 with 32k expansion. https://youtu.be/uyf7tiSO9vo At min. 16:.. he asks for help with the sound routines for the...

thx for all comments. i don't know many fighting games for the vic. that's why i try to realize this idea and because when i was a teen, i was a big fan of these kind of games. the players are 2 x 8 each and the background is 32 x 32 pixels. the vic stretches all pixels horizontally so it doesn't lo...

hi chysn,

it would be great if i can use your routine.
do you think it can play this jingle?



in my opinion it is the most typical asian song.

it's wunderfully clichéd

an IK+ style karate game with tiny simple stickmen for an unexpanded vic-20. written in assembly language. the idea to this game comes to me in the early 90th but i had no idea how to design and animate the 8x8 charaters. i found a member at atariage.com who helped me to design all the animations. P...

well done. respect, the third AAA-program this year from you. the concept is simple, but brings a lot of fun. i like your feeling for colors and grafics but the song kills my nerves :wink: did you create the font yourself? it looks good. and the best of all: it is for an unexpanded vic! i'm looking ...

hi mike, why did I know you would answer :mrgreen: ?? but many thanks for that :P . i've replaced $DD03 with $9112 and $DD01 with $9110 from the protovision code but without success. The registers did nothing in the emulator in combination with the (emulated) adapter. i am supprised that google find...
