Thanks Orion70 for your kind words! :) Yes, a map would have been ideal. Would have certainly been possible on the title screen. In-game would have been much harder for me to get working. In either case I was fast running out of memory and didn't really want to extend beyond a 16K expansion. Road st...

Thanks for linking the video Beamrider.

No worries Orion70. Monza has always been a favourite track of mine. The game is not as smooth as Pole Position but I tried to make up for it by making it as fast as I could.

Hi, I have finally finished my second VIC-20 game. ss2.png I've only tested it in VICE but if anybody tries it on real hardware and has any issues then I'll hopefully be able to fix it. It should work on NTSC but will run a bit faster. As it's a race game then I didn't think anybody would mind. :) A...

I haven't played Transversion for a long time. This is a really great version by any standard, even more so for an unexpanded game. Nice job indeed!

I really enjoyed watching these. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks highinfidelity and thank you playing the game. Yes, you're right about the meteor stage. I did try some sound effects ibut I couldn't find anything I liked so I settled for relaxing silence. :D I will definitely have a browse on the PAL/NTSC threads here. Thanks for that. Too late for this ga...

Great to hear it works OK on PAL hardware too. Thanks for trying that Lechuck.

Thanks chysn and Rich! It's not a large game but it's great to hear that it will provide a bit of short term fun for fellow VIC fans. Also great to hear it works on real hardware too!

Thanks for giving it a play Lechuck!

Hi, it only took me 40 years, but I've finally finished my first ever VIC game. :) It's a fairly standard shoot-em-up with a bit of asteroid dodging thrown in. I didn't want to be too ambitious first time out. Unfortunately I don't currently have a VIC 20 so it has only been tested in VICE. There's ...

Thanks joshuadenmark. It's nice to be here.

Just saying hello. I registered a couple of months back, so I'm long overdue. This is a cool forum with friendly members. It's been a real pleasure lurking here.
