Commander X16

Uploaded V1.5 ( replacing the download in the top/pinned comment):

• Made compatible with 65c816 instruction set -- no change in functionality.

• Only MUNCH.PRG changed; you can simply copy that into your game directory (to avoid overwriting your HISCORE.BIN).

Just uploaded V1.4 (replacing the download in the top comment above): Updated high-score saving to work with the latest kernal. Since this game was originally released, the kernal has been changed to not save over existing files. So, the first high-score would be saved, but subsequent ones would not...

Thank you!

I have code that loads a file, changes the loaded data, and writes it back into the same file. I noticed when I moved to R46, it will save the file if it doesn't exist, but doesn't appear to overwrite the file if it does.

AndyMt:

The code I based my routines on wasn't working in R44. I fixed that. Haven't tried on R45. Thanks for the heads up, though!

Thanks for the heads up! I'll see what I can figure out.

Just uploaded V1.2 (replacing the download in the top comment above): Enemies now react to the player. They will pursue the player when they're nearby and hostile. They will flee the player when nearby and a power-up is active (i.e., when the enemies are vulnerable). Power-up collision detection has...

Just uploaded V1.1 (replacing the download in the top comment above): Fixed an order of operations issue where on the rare occasion that you happened to finish a level just as an enemy touched you, you'd die, and the moment you moved after respawning, the level would be over. Now, level completion i...
