Re: In the making: Arukanoido – an Arkanoid clone

Bad news: that psychopathic turbo capitalism got me by the balls once too often now. If you want to play the full version of "Arukanoido" you'll have to buy a tape. No downloads. Sorry. :( I will buy a tape, but will you include a .prg file in it so that we can avoid to use a tape? Retrog...

Re: HELP: Three Vic20 games I'm looking for

Hi all and Merry Christmas! I have lost my .prg file of Blockbuster, the one edited by lordbubsy, that was fully working. I searched here to get it back, but the link isn't working anymore. Any of yours have it saved and would share it with me? I also sent a pm to Lordbubsy, hoping he can help me. T...

A modern LED/LCD TV beats any PAL CRT monitor in my opinion. Because of the 50 Hz flickering. If you get used to a LED/LCD TV and then watch something on a PAL CRT you go HEY how could I ever watch this? I do not agree. I have a LED tv and an old 14" CRT that I use on my ZX Spectrum and on my ...

Grazie! Lo farò!
A questo punto l'unica cosa da fare è caricare il dump della cassetta, fare uno sceenshot del gioco e condividerlo qui, così vediamo se qualcuno lo ricorda. Vedendo la foto, anche gli amici anglofoni potranno dirci la loro!
SVELERO' IL MISTERO! :lol:

ARSENIO LUPIN su PLAYGAMES nr7 per VIC20

Ragazzi, un amico mi ha parlato di questo gioco. Ovviamente non so quale sia il titolo originale, ed è proprio questo il problema. Non trovo nemmeno delle scansioni della rivista per poter sottoporre la foto del gioco. Stando a quanto dice il mio amico, il personaggio poteva entrare in un ascensore....

I would like to notice to Rhurst that downloaded REPEL again and I tried it on my PAL Vic20: it works perfectly.
Probably my previous version was corrupted.

^__^

P.S. Sprite Invaders is amazing! So smooth!

Blockbuster doesn't work as it should, Rhurst.
The games works well, but it have no music.
The original had music ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hgx2uILLb0 ).

I have a blockbuster.tap file that have music on the VICE emulator, but I don't know how to load it in the real hardware.

Good point.
It could be.
On VICE, Repel perfectly works. On the true PAL hardware it doesn't.
Too bad, 'cause I love that game... ;)

I'm gonna try Blockbuster on the real VIC now...

Thank you, Rhurst! I'll check it immediately on the real Vic.
I also tried Repel on it, but it doesn't work well. Did you ever tried Repel on a true Vic20?

HELP: Three Vic20 games I'm looking for

Hi guys, I've recently got the MegaCart and I also bought an Infinity SD device for my Vic20 (if you don't know what the Infinity is, take a look here: http://www.manosoft.it/?p=1&lang=en ). However, although I now have all the games and software I need on cartridge (thanks to Bryan's Megacart) ...
