Simple C64 programs compiled from the command line

C64 Example Programs

A collection of small C64 programs that can be built with your favourite text editor, on the command line.

Requirements

  • GNU Make
  • Vice64 with x64 and c1541
  • ACME assembler

Running Examples

Type make <filename> without extension to compile and run it. For example make black, which is a short program that sets the border and background color to black and loops forever. You can type make again to run another example, no need to stop Vice64.

In your browser

If you head over to http://vice.janicek.co/c64/ you can upload your d64-files and see them in action (although it requires a blazing fast javascript engine to run adequately).
