Re: Treasure-Seeker (available now!)
I've been playing and enjoying this game over the past few days. Just wanted to stop in and say thanks! Aww, thanks! That really means a lot to me. I'm thrilled you've been enjoying and appreciate my game. When I can find some time for it, I may make more Vic-20 games. I even have a start on 'Treas...

Re: 8 New games from a Japanese developer Inufuto
Awesome! From what I've seen (watching the vids), they look quite good and fun. Kudos to the programmer(s).
It's wonderful see more new home-brew games still being made for the good 'ol Vic-20.

Re: For new users - make a post or say hello
@fraural and @Rich
Welcome aboard. This seems like the place to be for Vic-20 fans. I'm still new-ish here myself, but I've already learned a lot from browsing and interacting on these forums and I even went ahead and recently made a new-retro Vic-20 game.
Stick around, explore and enjoy. Cheers!

Re: Super Expander Japan edition (Vic-1211m)
Out of curiosity, I did a bit of searching. I found something at http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/vic20/roms/tools/4k/; "vic1211m-SuperExpander.prg VIC-1211M from Japan. Same as Super Expander, with slightly diff commands. Starts at $a000." I downloaded the prg file, but wasn't able ...

Re: Treasure-Seeker (available now!)
<snip> Thanks for the good feedback and I'm happy that you like it. I do agree with the suggestion you mention of adding to the challenge / re-playability. I did want to try to add to the challenge in some way as the Player progresses onto new maps. Though a main roadblock in my trying to add in su...

Re: Treasure-Seeker (available now!)
Game updated to v1.6: Certain parts of game-play a bit quicker now and when accessing camp / buying items or when placing TNT. I've tweaked the map generation a bit too (when placing the rocks, so things should hopefully be more 'consistent' with about how 'thick' the rock-field in general is per a...

@Doug_in_nc : Ahh, bummer. Yeah, some sites have pop-up junk like that. Between my anti-virus software, Nord VPN service I use (which has an option to filter out much of that pop-up junk ads) and my browser (Brave browser), I rarely get any pop-up junk like you mentioned. Hopefully an alternative / ...

Re: Best option to connect one Vic-20 to an HDMI monitor?
This topic reminded me of a video I recently watched on YouTube where a guy manages to connect an old Atari 2600 to a 4K screen TV, with the use of a couple of adapter thingies and a VCR, and so it looks like could use HDMI (after running through the according adapters and VCR) to connect to his TV....

Re: The "Cursed VIC20" - A repair job I've hit the wall with
Welcome aboard (and I'm still somewhat new around here myself).
I think the GIF you posted of them trying to get rid of the evil-spirit from the 'Cursed Vic20' motherboard is hilarious.
Good luck with your repairs of the 'Cursed Vic20'.
