Good work.. I noticed that those spinning cones seem to come out a bit sooner/more often than the Arcade version? Also, a nice-to-have would be the small revolving-flap animation when they appear at the top that is on the Arcade. We are really talking about small polishing touches here though, it se...

nice

1443 was pretty sweet

can't be much left on your to-do list?

Amazing, can't wait to try on real hardware.

Addition of the hi-score tune gives it more of that arcade vibe.

nice btw, I see there is a new Atari 2600+ coming soon and brand new paddles are being manufactured for it to fit d-type connectors. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Atari-Cartridge-Paddle-Exclusive-Amazon-co-uk/dp/B0CG9QV4WT/ref=pd_bxgy_img_sccl_1/259-9572665-6789500?pd_rd_w=KjE3y&content-id=amzn1.sym....

What music should be playing then? Whilst entering the name? There used to be a song that played when you finished the game - I think you removed it to be played only on achieving a high score? Having been invited to enter my score, I assumed it would play. I attached an old version with said music.

Excellent, so smooooth! A couple of observations playing on real hardware. 1) There appeared to be some graphic corruption on the spaceship image. A vertical bar I hadn't noticed before. 2) When I got the laser, I had a score in the middle of the playfield counting up briefly, not sure if this is su...

Wow, even faster - super speedy now!

Excellent, hopefully will be released for Christmas

Looking great - very smooth.

I pressed the L key and it locked up, perhaps that's normal.

Vice 3.1 snapshot attached anyway.

I had a similar issue when developing Popeye. It would sometimes get stuck. In the end I reorganised the memory map to put all writeable values on a single data segment then set up vice watches to alert if writing outside of that segment. I also set up an auto play mode with infinite lives. Then I s...

As a teenager I had Jelly Monsters and Super-Lander.

I too had to have the original cartridge even though I have them on the mega-cart, just for the box, artwork and smell.

Thanks, I'm going to try it out.

I have a few Vic-20s and will keep most with the blurry "period-correct" look, but will try this on one of them for sure.

looks good!

Nice idea.

Might be useful to also have pages with grids for designing user-defined-characters and screen layouts?

Good idea about the cart extender. I don't have one so I'll have to see if any are listed on ebay or find if anyone is producing contemporary versions. My VIC-Rabbit has a "passthru" cart connector, so I'll play with that too, see if it helps. If you can't get any joy with the "VIC-R...
