I haven't been here in a while, so I figured I'd bump this thread and remind the creative folks that Wizard of Wor is still missing on VIC. :twisted:

P.S., happy to be wrong.
Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Welcome back! Glad to see the old Denial-folks checking back in. No Wizard of Wor yet, but I noticed recently that Victragic (of Frogger 07 and Pitfall-fame) changed his profile picture:

So maybe he has something in the works...

I consider Imagic's Demon Attack a brilliant Phoenix clone and a technically outstanding Vic 20 game. But on the other hand, it doesn't have the super cool boss which was a crucial part of Phoenix. To find a Vic 20 arcade shooter with a big boss was always a dream for me. I guess Gorf and Xenon 2 were the ones that came closest before I got my C64.

I think the control situation would be rather clumsy but Tron and Discs of Tron would be nice to see using a joystick and keyboard (maybe better with a mouse?)
