Sin duda, uno de los clásicos, que destaca por su chip de sonido, y que convirtió en realidad los sueños de muchos niños en los 80: el Commdore 64 The post Programando en Commodore 64 0: El Comienzo appeared first on Metsuke (メツケ).

En esta ocasión definimos la lista de máquinas relacionadas con la linea C64 con las que pretendo trabajar, aunque añada la particula "64" al nombre, pretendo cubrir la gama 8 its en su conjunto, usando como referencia el soporte del emulador VICE, an ausencia - en el momento de escribir estas lineas - de una referencia exhaustiva procedente de una linea sobre emulación C64.

Este es un anuncio de un ordenador Commodore CBM (¿Series 3001?) que me he encontrado entre mis catálogos antiguos, que creo que a partir de ahora iré subiendo. Como ha cambiado la tecnología y el precio: 500.000 pesetas de la época (ahora 3000€ pero para entonces ¡uff!). Mirando en ebay me lo encuentro por 50€ [...]

Night Mission Pinball is a pinball game for the Commodore 64, published in 1982 by subLOGIC. Night Mission Pinball supports up to four players, and can be controlled with either the keyboard or a joystick. The controls are responsive, and the movement of the ball is pretty decent, for an old game. Old 2D pinball [...]

Patternia is a 1992 Tower of Hanoi game published in Game On in December 1992, with programming by Henrik Holmdahl, graphics by Simon Leijnse, and music by Kaspar Dahlqvist and Jakob Hellander. Patternia really can’t be compared to any of the previous games in terms of graphics–it leaves them all far behind. The difference, I [...]

Die Türme von Hanoi is a 1989 Tower of Hanoi game by Nikolaus Heusler, published in 64′er Sonderheft #42. This one is pretty good looking, and has quite a different style, with the dark coloration, than the others I’ve played. The animation is quick, and the pulsing from light to dark of the discs looked rather [...]

Towers of Hanoi by Daniel Miller is a 1987 update of his 1985 Tower of Hanoi game of the same name. While substantially the same, this game is much improved compared to its predecessor. The animation of the discs is much quicker, which cures the major problem with the previous game, and it also registers [...]

Discos en Torres is a 1986 Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore 64, and apparently a translation of Glen Fisher’s Hanoi from 1984. Besides the translation, this game differs only in very minor ways from Hanoi: the title screen is modified slightly and some text is recolored, but it seems to be otherwise the [...]

Blocktower is a 1987 Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore 64, released by Wicked Software. This seems to be exactly the same as Blocks from the previous year, with the title changed, and both seem to be copies of Glen Fisher’s Tower of Hanoi games. Blocktower was published in The Big 100, a collection [...]

Pyramidon is a 1987 Tower of Hanoi game by M. Kötter. Wow, is this game different from the last dozen or so I’ve reviewed. Just look at that lovely title screen! It’s got sound, nice graphics, a plot, everything you could ask of a game. Well, almost everything. It’s not much fun, but nobody’s perfect, [...]

Blocks is a 1986 Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore 64, released (according to GB64) by Robtek Ltd. This one seems very much like a recolored version of Glen Fisher’s Hanoi. I’d be surprised if it weren’t based on it or one of its successors. As a result, my opinion of this one is [...]

Pharao’s Super Nadeln! by Logicre is a 1985 Tower of Hanoi game. This one’s another simple Tower of Hanoi game, but it’s got some nice features–a timer, selectable number of discs between two and nine, pretty colors, animation, and simple sound effects. This one takes the crown from Pharaoh’s Needles–the best Tower of Hanoi game [...]

Tower of Hanoi by D. Buckeye is, as the name suggests, a Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore 64 and PET 64 computers, released in 1983. This one is less featureful than even Glen Fisher’s version from five years prior: the number of discs is fixed at five, and the movements are not animated. [...]

Die Türme von Pompeji is a 1983 Tower of Hanoi type-in game found in a German magazine, CPU (Computer programmiert zur Unterhaltung). Though not, in my opinion, as visually appealing as the earlier Pharaoh’s Needles, Die Türme von Pompeji includes some features not found in the earlier Tower of Hanoi games I’ve played. Namely, sound [...]

Hanoi by Glen Fisher, published in Cursor #05 (Nov. 1978), is a Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore PET. Hanoi, like most Tower of Hanoi games for Commodore computers, is a very simple and straightforward implementation. The rules should be familiar to most of us, but you may see Wikipedia for details. In this [...]

In 1980, according to GB64, Brookfield Software released an updated version of Glen Fisher’s Hanoi, including limited color. This newer version is substantially similar to the first release, including the same animation and interface, and very limited color. As before, there’s nothing in particular to recommend this version, so let this brief review stand as [...]

Pharaoh’s Needles is a 1982 Tower of Hanoi game for the Commodore 64 by Ron Wagner & Wim (thanks to GB64 for this information). Well, this incarnation of the Tower of Hanoi puzzle is a bit more appealing than Glen Fisher’s versions. Rather than just moving discs around, we’re going to engage in the Game [...]

The Guns of Fort Defiance is a 1981 game reminiscent of Artillery, published by Avalon Hill. I’m playing the 1982 Commodore 64 port. Fort Defiance, according to the game, is an incomplete fort, and you must defend its unfinished eastern wall against an invading army, by ordering that your artillery be loaded with certain ammunition, [...]

Space Lanes is a Commodore 64 and VIC-20 collect ‘em up by Robert Alonso. In the future, Earth is in dire need of fuel, and it’s your job to pilot your spaceship through the space lanes, collecting fuel while avoiding laser fire from the invisible KOPEC robots. Like Pac-Man, you move around a maze collecting [...]
