Re: [ITA] Mesmer per Commodore 64, by Mariano Tomatis
È un fatto abbastanza curioso. :? So che in realtà il programma è stato scritto e provato su un emulatore on-line (da qualche parte nella pagina c'è anche il link) che forse accetta anche righe più lunghe del normale. Certo però che un emulatore che non emula anche difetti e limiti della macchina em...

[ITA] Mesmer per Commodore 64, by Mariano Tomatis
Ho scoperto per avventura che un insospettabile collega di lavoro che conosco da molti anni ha una sorta di seconda vita nella quale è un illusionista mentalista e mesmerista. Si chiama Mariano Tomatis e dal suo curriculum percepisco che dev'essere molto noto nel cerchio di queste discipline: ha col...

Re: [ITA] Play on Tape
Fenomenale! Ho tenuto bigliettini miei analoghi per ricordo tra le pagine del manuale del VIC. A parte che di quando in quando ne produco ancora oggi di molto simili...

Wow you met William Shatner! He looks kind and amused, was he?

Re: VIC 20 Hardware Prototype
Well... was it supposed to be a fully fledged working prototype? Or just a "prototype"? You can mean basically everything with "prototype"...

Re: [ITA] Play on Tape
Onestamente no, ma non sono un grande esperto. In ogni caso la mia impressione è che si tratti di un fasciolo portato a rilegare in copisteria, tipo tesi di laurea per intenderci.

Re: 9 Pin based Joypad with 5 fire buttons?
I'll never repeat enough times how I consider the Vectrex pad one of the most advanced controllers ever released. As a side note, I like how with some games (ports of Space Invaders being perfect examples) the abundance of fire buttons allows for arcade-philological "ship" movement on scre...

Re: 3D printed joystick
Looks terrific, but what about the ergonomics? It looks quite hard to be held in hand, and one of the two buttons seems impossible to reach. It is not so "on the field"?

Re: How to read bits from tape
Now that the issue has been settled - I don't even understand if this is somehow related, but I remember that on the VIC20 manual, among the last "technical" pages, there was a sample program that was supposed to read data from tape by "buffering" them. The text pretended that th...

Very nicely done! We now see that Emilia has violet eyes like Liz Taylor. And custom fonts are always a nice touch!

Re: Two Days to the Race
Seen the speed at which you performed this 40 columns conversion, I foresee that you're not going to be satisfied until your game will remain in three parts - you know you can do better than this, and this worm will dig your brain over and over and won't let you sleep at night. So I think I'll wait ...
