Nino Porcino's Commodore VIC 20 page

This page is dedicated to the Commodore VIC-20,
one of the greatest home computer.

Many ask why I do still program for the Vic 20, here is why:

because it's funny and challenging
because I'm nostalgic of good "old times"

but most of all

because I want to show what's it's possible to achieve with just 3K bytes and 1 MHz processor,
in days when RAM and CPUs are measured in terms of "Giga"
and people have forgotten the ancient art of computer programming

My Vic 20 programs, freely downloadable:

Games:

Tetris

Pong

Return To Fort Knox

Gomoku

Utilities:

Screen Test

My WIN32 cross-platform compiling tools (to be released):

Asmproc an assembly language preprocessor that lets you write structured statements like IF..THEN...ELSE and DO...WHILE within the assembler source.

Macros a set of useful macro written by me for the DASM assembler.

Char2asm converts VIC-20 binary bitmapped charatcers into readable text for inclusion into an assembler source file.

Hexconv easily converts hexadecimal numbers in DASM listing file into decimal so that you can quickly SYS them from basic

Hexdump dumps a file to screen in hexadecimal format.
