I'm an 8- & 16-bit coder, graphician and musician, mainly on the Commodore64 and Amiga. I'm also a PureBasic coder, programming any development applications I need and maybe the odd PC game. andyvaisey.itch.io | csdb.dk/scener/?id=6404

CityLab update: code from the terrain editor has now been carried over to the game itself. There is no 'simulation' yet, it's only a glorified mapper, but progress has been good. @commodoreofficial.bsky.social @c64news.bsky.social #C64 #Commodore64 #Commodore

Outrun PETSCII is almost complete, so I've started work on another project called 'CityLab', a 'SimCity' style game based on the classic #Amiga version for the C64. Terrain map creator/editor done! @commodoreofficial.bsky.social @c64news.bsky.social @commodoreblog.uk #C64 #Commodore64 #Commodore

Update to my little #C64 tool that finds and saves ('rips') charsets from VICE snapshots, CCS64 freeze files or C64 memory dumps. Try Redjac v0.95! Now includes 64-bit Linux & ARM builds, as well as Windows. csdb.dk/release/?id=... @commodoreofficial.bsky.social @c64news.bsky.social #commodore64

In work I found I needed an ultra-tiny, simple, portable application for resizing photos and images. I wrote 'ScissorPIX' for Win X64. If anyone else wants it, download is here: drive.proton.me/urls/VJH2G9D...

I'm fairly sure it's only me, but every time I saw the UK Aldi Xmas adverts featuring their stupid carrots, the one carrot in particular reminded me of a certain Retro Recipes YouTuber and new CEO of #Commodore. @everythingc64.itch.io #commodore64 #c64

After my recent video of the latest test build of #OutRun #PETSCII, someone suggested a dedication to the OutRun arcade team, who eventually became AM2. I've therefore added a new screen to the intro! @sega.jp @wearecommodore.bsky.social #C64 #Commodore64

Work progresses on #Outrun #PETSCII! I'm meticulously recreating the level data from the arcade version for the #C64 using the excellent 'Layout' application and a spreadsheet! Tough going but will hopefully be worth it! @everythingc64.bsky.social @c64discord.bsky.social #commodore64 #8bit
