Re: Hack & Slash

This past year, I've been picking up on Node.js and TypeScript. That lead me to begin a legacy C port of Hack & Slash using TypeScript. While it's still alpha, it's far enough along that it caught the attention of a few Amiga BBS sysops -- telling me their story, encouraging me to finish the wor...

Re: Introducing NinjaTerm 2.0

Does VICE allow for RS232 via TCP emulation? Have you tried it with NinjaTerm running on xvic? I've tried running DesTerm after running x128 -rsuser -rsdev1 192.168.1.254:23 to connect to a telnet service running on a local Linux box.

Re: VIC Game Club No. 6 – Omegas

Cool "game club" thread. If you beat any of the posted high scores in the Wiki, do be sure to put them in -- gives me something to shoot for. You'd think I'd have a better hand and anticipation having innate knowledge of the underlying programming to post ludicrous scores. Haha, that's whe...
