Very cool and addictive, would love to see the source! I may need to listen to the Zelda theme, but for the life of me, I can't figure this one out: http://www.linusakesson.net/games/autosokoban/?v=1&seed=2084139227&level=10

How much would it cost to have you build me one?
I'll build you one for $15,000. :-P
With shipping to the US? If so, I'm in.

I have a small question.
Can you tell me when the /dev/ttyXXX or /dev/pts/X are added in the /dev directory ?
Initially, I thought that each program had its own /dev/ttyXXX device. When is the kernel adding a new /dev/ttyXXX device ?
Let say that I add the following lines in /etc/rc.local
# Start these program during the init.
/home/user/prog1 &
/home/user/prog2 &
/home/user/prog3 &
Will it create one or three new /dev/ttyXXX device ?
(or will it reuse another one that is already present?)
Thanks for this article.

Very clever, and thanks for the interesting read!

Very interesting read! I wish there were more of such clear in-depth articles explaining these tricks. That's a clever and elegant solution to encode the crunch schedule into the sprite.
Btw, ((MC | MCBASE) & 0x15) | ((MC & MCBASE) & 0x2a) can be simplified to (MC | MCBASE) & 0x3f, can't it? Is it known what's happening in the hardware when this value is generated?

No, the proposed simplification would compute bitwise-or between all the bits. The original expression computes bitwise-and for odd-numbered bits, bitwise-or for even-numbered bits.
Is it known what's happening in the hardware when this value is generated?
I have a pretty good guess: Every other bit is inverted in the internal representation. This is sometimes done when implementing registers that have to be incremented quickly, and MC does have to be incremented on three succesive half-cycles. So what *really* happens is a bitwise-and across the entire value, and this is a typical artefact of NMOS logic.

Oops, that was dumb. I read the article yesterday, but this morning I thought it was ((MC | MCBASE) & 0x15) | ((MC | MCBASE) & 0x2a), that is, MC | MCBASE twice. I should not post before morning coffee :-)

Hi
Do you know if they will work with z8 files?. It would be cool to play current IF games on the C64. Thanks.

In your Alice example, you have used the wrong syntax colour for the word White.
