🔗 2004 was the first year of the future
The Verge's retrospective on technology and the internet in 2004.
🔗 6502 assembly language: a quick overview with Commodore 64 programming examples
Can't hide my intrigue when I learned about this because I knew when I was a kid that BASIC was not the only way to program the C64 and there was another mysterious way of creating programs and games that was much more powerful.
🔗 Making 8-bit Music From Scratch at the Commodore 64 BASIC Prompt
I thought I knew BASIC programming when I was a kid. This is on a totally different mind-blowing level.

🔗 What is Textmode?

🔗 THE 88×31 ARCHIVE

Hercules is aiming to achieve immortality by completing the task the Gods have set him. His task is presented as a platform adventure set in ancient Greece, featuring a variety of enemies as you play it through.

The history of Lemmings
🔗 Pixel Art
On the C64, you always have access to all of the fixed 16 colours provided by the hardware. I like working in Hires, which on the C64 is 320x200 pixels. This is divided into "chars" of 8x8 pixels and each such char can only contain two colours at any one time. This limitation provides for quite a bit of fun and challenging puzzles.
🔗 Captain 80 Basic Adventures
BASIC adventure games
🔗 VICTOR FAKHOURY
Lovely retro website of Victor Fakhoury showcasing his coptic icons. Lots of ancient Egyptian motifs.
🔗 Amiga Graphics Archive
This site is dedicated to great pixel graphics made with the Commodore Amiga from 1985 to 1995. An uncountable number of graphics were made during this time period, but there are quite a number of noteworthy images that, I believe, shouldn't gather dust on some harddrive, hidden in some extra level inside a game that never gets played or on a PD collection disk that is almost unknown. I want to make these graphics accessible again from the comfort of your own internet browser by showcasing them on this site.
🔗 PIXEL AE - Arabic/English Pixel Font
