The Vx415 is a music synthesizer for your Commodore VIC-20. Most users will find that they can figure out the workings of the software in a very short time, but for those having trouble please consult the user manual which accompanies this software.
Description: This is my version of Exidy's Targ game. Drive your car shooting to the arrows and avoiding crashing with them. Requires 8k expansion and a Joystick. To start the game, use any key (or Joystick button). After a few seconds in the presentation screen, game will enter into 'Attract Mode'. Hit a key (or JoyStick button), to go back to the presentation screen.

Title: Murderlize All Humans
Platform: Commodore VIC-20 +16kb memory expansion
Media: Floppy disk / Tape
Video: PAL/NTSC
Interface: Joystick
Genre: Arcade
Language: Assembler
Written by: W E de Villiers
Berserk! the video arcade game was released in 1980 by Stern Electronics. It was one of the first arcade games to feature synthesized speech. This was at a time when memory costs were at a premium. 'Murdelize all humans' uses Berserk! as inspiration but does not attempt to copy it.
Joystick left/right/up/down with the fire button to discharge the plasma gun. Fire at levers to alter their state (The unlock symbol at the bottom right will light up on achieving the correct combination). Just run over the exit key to pick it up. As for the Lovebot - avoidance means life.
