Re: TheVic20 Project Carousel 1.5.0

The C64 mini will run Vic20 directly from the Carousel with the latest version. The Full size C64 or Vic20 will both run Vic20 games from the Carousel and will also run VICE and a lot more like Atari and Amiga now I think. I haven't updated in a while. https://thec64community.online/thread/603/pcuae...

Re: 6560 FPGA Progress.

The Vic20 is running in MiSTer FPGA on DE10 Nano.

There may be somethings you can glean from there.

P.S., happy to be wrong.
Yes - hopefully someone will enter it into the Things we want to see competition!

Re: COMPETITION: Things we want to see / hear - 2021 Vic20 Development Competition - Launch

Post here that you have an entry in progress I'm improving the game I sent to last year's TheC64 competition. I named it "rainfall" because the map was progressively flooded by the rain and the player had to pick up some objects. But it really was more a mockup than a game. I've changed t...
