C64_Superchase/README.md

Superchase - Commodore 64 version

A quest to convert an old BASIC game for the TI-99 4/A computer to XC=Basic 3 (the game itself is a rewriting of a game listing for Atari 8-bit and VIC-20).

The game is "Superchase", I found it in Compute!'s "First Book of TI Games" on archive.org .

This ended up becoming a remix of three different versions of the same game:

• Original VIC-20 version by Anthony Godshall - October 1982
• Atari version by someone @ Compute! Gazette (took mainly the graphics from it)
• TI-99 4/A version by Cheryl Regena (the monster-logic was totally broken, I merely got inspired by it)

FINALLY completed this on November 1st, 2022 - forty years later the first publication in Compute Gazette! I didn't manage to keep everything into the first VIC bank (first 16K of C64 RAM), but... I got pretty close :)
