Denial

My VIC had black and white, but I remember when I got my first colour TV for my C64. Oh, these colours.. amazing. I made a new basic game because I had colours.

Sorry for the OT - and back IT: is there an ETA for beta-versions of the game? EDIT: post #3000 - yoho! Yes! Same question! Beta versions are overrated. You have to wait. My first (evil and secret) plan was that I could make very limited box version and release digital version later. But I'm lazy..

You have to blame my artistic skills and low resolution. First it was a placeholder but now it's like an old friend
But yes, He/She/It looks like Horace.

EDIT: ..and NO. No playable beta. I will release it when it's ready.

Well.. it's my next project for VIC-20.

I try to fix my enemy sprite mask / collision / whatever problems. I hope that I could release it someday (sooner or later). 28 unique adventure screens.

So, it took some time, but I have put up the "DVD extras" for the VIC-20 article on the Retro Gamer forum, if you want to read more that did not make the cut... http://www.retrogamer.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=52722 There is also a plug for Pulse... I hope that you received my emai...

Now I am very excited
A New Speccy Is Coming...

"The Spectrum Next is a reimplementation of the original at hardware level, ensuring it runs all the software out there -- old and new. And it's also compatible with most expansions made for the ZX Spectrum."

Wow.. what is that?

Okay..
I watched new "Inside Retro Gamer" video..
.. and what the..

VIC-20 (my first BASIC-program)
C64 (games..games.. and so many lines of basic code)
ZX Spectrum (Sorry, but I like monochrome graphics and my neighbour got it)
C16 (My cousin's computer)
Amstrad CPC (My cousin's computer)

...and Salora Fellow, MSX, Sharp MZ 800, Telmac... etc

wow.. William is so electric that VIC works without cables?

If somebody wants to read the review : http://www.everygamegoing.com/landing/items/vic20/cronosoft/tapes/Super_Starship_Space_Attack.html First you invent a most retarded game title ever and now magazines write reviews about it. :D Why I never learn? But hey! I got more motivation to create the next...

Thanks, Real VIC and old TV bring the real feeling and you're right. Font is hard to read, I tried too much and I was too "artistic". My next game has same monochrome spectrum look. But I have to finish it first (so many features). btw, Finnish game site dome.fi made an article about my ga...

Biggest problem is that it's only an emulator device. Yes, it's a nice emulator but.. you know..
I could pay if I could get a real handheld Z80 spectrum

I heard rumours that Sega controllers can break your C64/C16/VIC-20 and you should not use them.
But HW dudes can explain why.
