ROGUEish Demo is updated! Hey all, great news! I've updated the free 2 level demo to the latest ROGUEish source code! It still has the current SID tune, but the final version will change that :) Enjoy!!...

You can now control all of ROGUEish via joystick now and not even use the keyboard!! Long press now displays a menu where you can select: move mode, look-attack mode, drink potion, quit (back to titlescreen). Pressing fire will do that option! #c64 #rogueish @everythingc64.itch.io

#c64 #rogueish I've been updating the minimap graphics to resemble the actual room shapes more closely. It seems to be easier to navigate around like this, and it looks cooler too!

After a discussion I am releasing the tool I made to generate data for my Commodore 64 bitmap animation demo "Vovve". Basically it takes a series of multicolor bitmap images as pngs and outputs reasonably minimized source data to play back the animation.

Link in reply.

Awesome! After much debugging and head scratching (have less hair than before 😁😁) I've managed to get .pseudopc working in my #omniasm cross-cpu assembler so I can put in relocatable code now.

I hadn't taken into account the branch source address when calculating the new address using pseudopc!
