I prefer "Don't eat the trees" but was afraid it would be too long for a file name.

Don't forget to send me my royaltees, I wanna retire soon ;-)

Jokes apart, I'm flattered you think it's good enough to share outside this forum, I was expecting more negative reviews!

Best regards

Reprogrammed!

Same link: http://www.box.net/shared/diabbfb21qvhfh30xb40 , I flushed the old file.

Restructured for better readability, added a splash screen with instructions and is now useable on a real Vic 20.

Thanks for the constructive comments.

Best regards, and long live to the Vic 20!

My original was probably "IJKM", I'll use "YGHB" to be more centered on my laptop

Thanks, I didn't remember this (my real Vic has been in a closet for years). I'll look into it and correct soon

Hi Mayhem, Thanks for the comments. The idea of the game is to force you to use an odd controller, namely the keyboard. Otherwise, it is too easy on a joystick andthe game loses its challenge. I almost went through level 6 this morning. Maybe I'll need to port the main loop to assembly language to m...

Newbie wants to share his creation

Hi, I'm new to VICE and emulation, but did lots of programming on the VIC20 in the '80s. Here's my first game on the emulator. All in straight basic, not fancy but a bit addictive. It's called "No Trees" because the objective is to avoid the trees. Can you reach level6? Have fun. http://ww...

Got it: I had lots of fights with re-writing the file (I'm used to datassette, not disks!)

Here it is. I'll post it in the "program" section as well.

Thanks!

It's the #1 that eludes me!

Also, I don't have a web site I can use to share for an unlimited time, that's why I was also wondering if people can just copy and paste their code here

Newbie wants to share his creation

Hi, I'm new to VICE but had programmed VIC20 a lot in my teen days. I created a game in VICE for windows, all in basic (I still think it's fun to play, although quite ehhh basic?). How do I share it here? How do I go from writing code for example in the notepad into VICE and the opposite without ref...
