  3. A friend asked how I did to show a bitmap image on the 80-column screen of the #C128 using the #VDC. I did that for the splash screen of my text adventures (The Queen's Footsteps and Silk Dust) using a simple RLE compression. I published here the code, under the MIT license that is very permissive: github.com/DarwinNE/C128_splas I hope it will be useful for you #retrocomputing #Commodore

  4. Card game implementation: UNO 1.0.4

    UNO is an implementation of the card game of the same name written in C, with versions available for various 8- and 16-bit computers. The Amiga version requires Kickstart 2.0 and comes in both a text- (or ANSI-) based version and a bitmap version. As with all other versions, a human player competes against three computer opponents.

  5. Seeing what's going on in the Mega65 world, I decided to give that little bugger a setup on my vintage computer desk (again). The C64 core left nothing to be desired anyway. With seemingly stable PET and Plus/4 cores and an Amiga OCS one on the horizon, who knows what will come up next.

  6. CW: vibecoding

    Ich hab die letzten Tage immer mal wieder mit claude code rumgespielt.
    Hab mich von Prompt und Codeiteration zu Prompt und Codeiteration gearbeitet.per Prompt auch Debug-Infos gegeben wenn was nicht funktioniert hat.
    Nun zu einer Betaversion einer GORILLAS.BAS Portierung gekommen.
    Für den C128D
    im CP/M Modus.
    Mit Ausgabe über den VDC(!).
    Ich bin schon echt erstaunt, was doch Möglich sein kann.

  7. The Cursed Planet, another mid-1980s Italian text adventure now translated and enhanced for many machines including #Atari8bit and #AtariST computers (BDB Project) bdb-project.itch.io/cursed-pla #atari #c64 #msx #apple2 #amiga #bbc #plus4 #c128 #cpc

  8. My major project for this week is trying to get #FujiNet firmware v1.6.1 released. Seems like there's always another bug that needs to be squashed. Probably because FujiNet is available on so many systems and I'm still in the process of cleaning up all the copy&paste coding and creating proper base classes for everything.

  9. Text adventure: Eclipse

    The science fiction text adventure "Eclipse" is an adaptation of the Italian original "Morgan Tyler: Eclypse" by Bonaventura di Bello, which has been released in 1986 for the ZX Spectrum. It has now been translated to English and rewritten for a modern audience with the original author's permission.
