Hi,
I have fond memories of using the family C64. It's where I learned about assembler, dipped a toe into the exotic world of Forth, and became absolutely convinced I wanted to be a programmer.
The thing that attracted me to the X16 was the opportunity to work with a new, tiny micro computer that already has an excited community. I'm looking forward to playing with real X16, but in the meantime, the simulator is a bunch of fun!

@BruceMcF has a FORTH for the X16.
Or should I say, "X16 FORTH BruceMcF has"...

Now I'm glad that I saw that one 8-bit show and tell video about how to make random mazes in Forth
? Besides, welcome to the forum, @Alan!

It's still alpha, but if I get a chance to work on it this summer I hope to get it up to beta.
There's a Volksforth:
... as well as xForth (but still alpha, for instance, DOES> is broken):
