Hi there,
I just released a new educational game: VIC Bones, which is a small BASIC program exploiting the advantages of the 40 columns to teach the name and location of many human bones.
I hope that other anatomy lessons will eventually follow this one (for Centallica: I'm thinking about nerves, muscles, and so on - no pun intended ).
New release: VIC Bones educational software
Moderator: Moderators
Great work! It seems I'm a little rusty on my bones, but not for long . I have a lot of respect for the big Vic-20 projects, but seeing things like this really make me smile. I wish software like this was used at school. It would make learning much more fun. When I finish my game (might be a while...) I'd like to contribute some educational software too.

Thanks Wilson- I saw my first VIC at school, and I was very proud that mine had a microcomputer in a time when most teachers didn't even know what it was. So, I decided to create a new series dedicated to the human body.
I think that educational software deserves more preservation efforts. Question for collectors here: is there a comprehensive database of VIC edu programs and books somewhere?

Latin Bones
Hi
Excellent work.
When I first tried it I was pleasantly surprised that I remembered so much from 30 years ago!!
shame I used Tarsals instead of the latin Tarsus.
Thank you,
Tarka
