The holidays has put a damper on the game front. Will continue soon. After watching Bandersnatch, I’m going to have to be careful about what symbol I am drawing when working on the map, haha.
Got an early Christmas present from my wife. An HP 8470p Elitebook. Spent the day installing Linux and messing around with Gnome 3. I’m really liking it! #gnome3
There is a ton of information on this site. Great resource for the 6502!

With only just a week left until Christmas it might be time to think of that last gift or two and to support your favourite independant 8bit software houses that bring life to your favourite machies. The 64 is bigger now than in the last 25 years thanks to their efforts.
While working on my text adventure the other day, I ran into a scenario which in my mind, I wasn’t sure how I was going to make it work. So I asked Stefan @8bit_era and he wrote a blog post about it. Check it out! 8-bit.info/2018/12/13/the…
If you haven't checked out the progress they are making on @pixelvision8 , you really should. Jesse Freeman is doing some great things with this fantasy console. I'm a fan!

Phantasie II was probably the c64 game I spent the most time playing back in the day. Loved this game! Created many chars and played over and over. Creating a party of adventurers made it even more fun.
I worked on more of my text adventure, which I am now calling Fusor and Q. I added a few more rooms and figured out a couple of more puzzles. Added more to the end game as well. It’s coming along! #c64 #textadventure
Portal on the c64. Quite amazing if you ask me!

Since the Al Lowe story seems to be getting attention, please allow me to remind you that The Infocom Cabinet exists: archive.org/details/infoco…
When I was a kid and had an Atari 2600, I remember staring at ads for the game, Starmaster. I was in awe. I just saw a picture of the box cover and it reminded me. I never did play it, haha.
Yesterday was productive on my text adventure. Added several rooms, started revising the map and added several objects. Also worked on more character development. I need a title so I can quit calling it text adventure, haha. #c64 #textadventure
Came across this in my feed. I have always been fascinated by LISP. I really got into it years ago. Used Emacs with Steel Bank Common Lisp. Played in the REPL everyday. Cool stuff.
Really cool that this C64 survived through this. youtu.be/wVphFkaX1gg
Text adventure process is ongoing. Story idea is written. Introduction text is written. Location is selected. Puzzles and rooms are now being added and brainstormed. #c64 #TextAdventure
