Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone
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....

Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone
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.

Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone
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...

Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone
Looking great - very smooth.
I pressed the L key and it locked up, perhaps that's normal.
Vice 3.1 snapshot attached anyway.

Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone
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...

Re: Cartridges!!!
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.

Re: VIC20 Jailbar removal & improved S-video modification.
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.

Re: Great gift for VIC-20 freaks
Nice idea.
Might be useful to also have pages with grids for designing user-defined-characters and screen layouts?

Re: Mega-cart issues?
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...

Re: Mega-cart issues?
I believe you should be able to prevent it from AutoStarting by using a cartridge port extender that allows you to turn it off? Then you could try switching it in and running the program again?
