Today, I release another arcade classic clone for the venerable Commodore VIC 20. This time it is based on the 1980 Stern hit, Berzerk. It did not take 24-years to complete like Quikman possessed me, just a mere couple of months between commuter rail rides and some weekend tinkering. Still, it came out pretty good because of my improved software sprite stack and floor generator.
And I got all of it to fit with only the minimal 8kb memory expansion required for those software sprites — with BASIC reporting only 1-byte free after LOAD. Funny how that always makes me feel good.
