Do you still make game programs for the vic?

Here is a silly program to make your vic a completely new look:

1 PRINT"{CLR}WAIT...": J=32768: FORT=5120 TO 7166 STEP 2: I=PEEK(J): POKET,I: POKET+1,I: J=J+1: NEXT

2 POKE56,20: POKE52,20: POKE36867,23: POKE36869,253: REM J DANIELS 1996

My first Vic was a birthday present. I was in fifth grade. It would take more than five years before I got my first game for the system: Gridrunner. In the next five years I got two more games, Omega Race and Pacman.

I used it with the star commander program to play all of the old carts from funnet ftp. The only problem is that the cable only works with processors UNDER pe...

To make this a better forum, I hope to have more members. Please help by emailing any sites related to the vic or contacting ebayers who are buying vic 20s.

More people means more resources. You'll probably be able to get the hardware, software or information you need from one of them.

Hello. I'm Jeff. Welcome to what I hope will become a fun vic 20 community.

I still use my vic and collect items realted to it. I hope to post interesting pics, programs and information here soon. Feel free to join and add to the site.

Look at this line. Can you see why it produces a SYNTAX ERROR? 10 FOR T=1 TO 15: PRINT T AND 3: NEXT Look closely. The problem is quite simple. Typed without spaces (as we all do), the computer wants to read "T AND 3" as "TAN D3". Tan is a basic token, and without a parenthetical...

Denial started as a paper newsletter (or fanzine) by Jeff Daniels in the early 90s. I had trouble delivering it as many of those interested lived overseas. As addresses changed, I abandoned the idea. I continued to make programs for the vic. I still have a few of the old newsletters and some of the ...
