I still think your work is fantastic. Your book is really useful to me (I hope to publish my first Vic20 game soon), and the color version of your book is a great idea ! Thank you very much for this book, and good luck with your future projects ^^ !

The table on p75 could use a sentence of explanation. I understood it fine as if you need this, then do this. But some people might get confused.

Also, it’s a minor thing, but a carry out from addition is actually slightly faster than all Boolean logic for XOR.

So

(X+Y)-2*(X AND Y)

I actually did a benchmark on this some years ago. Pedantic I know.

I have the spiral bound first edition within arms reach at all times. Looking forward to this one in print. Outstanding work.

Please tell me more about how you visualize the characters and setting.

Great stuff, Jeffrey. I'll wait and purchase a bound manual like I did for the first one as projects like this need full support. Appreciate the great work you do. Thank you.

Thanks!

on pages 101 / 102 seems to be a mistakte, there is a reference to page 000 - I assume this is a placeholder :)

G. RASTER VALUE See page 000

H. SCREEN MEMORY LOCATION See page 000


J-K. LIGHT PEN See page 000

L-M. PADDLES See page 000
