That's surely a quick working approach. Thank you! Using print it would be faster than with pokes. And assembler would be the next step.

I used the tool from time to time. I think it involves some steps to make it work with exotic machines. I'll check it next week maybe. I'm away from home and on a PC diet somehow.. :-D

It got the expert thingy already included?

Oh, a tool already exists? Got a link to give it a try? 8-)

So it was technically released on your computer (only). ^_^
We could automate the process with a tool like a data2bin.

Nice one. Was it released as a binary program or as a basic program with print statements? I assume SHARPSCII was used in many programs like games but were there also art projects?

Nice chatset! How do the graphic modes on this machine work? How many colours can be used?

Yes, 100.000.000! Go for it!

Thank you very much. I am happy with the results, as it was made during a 48h game jam on a weekend where I was already very busy with other stuff as well.

The Final Spook is a small game jam game, where the ghost looks for his final rest. I did the PETSCII graphics for it. comsha.itch.io/final-spook #PETSCII #c64 #textart #retrocomputing #pixelart #IndieDevs
