ace. that is all. simply ace.

This is pretty remarkable. Had I not been told otherwise, I would have assumed this was a C64.
-
why couldn't this type of stuff have been done in the 80s when people actually used their Vic20s and faced ridicule.

@NotATube There were a lot of UNDOCUMENTED tricks you could do with the VIC. But, without the 'Super Expansion' cart which threw in a few convenient commands like DRAW, you had to do everything the hard way, including learning assembler, to really get the most out of it. (I used a FOR-NEXT loop to throw values into a POKE command and see what they did. Wish I could remember the one that fooled the unexpanded VIC into thinking it had 16k!

I don't get it- is this for real? Could this really run on a stock Vic 20 with 16K expansion and no further tricks? The Vic was character based, so I don't see how they could do that effect at 1:11 and even *less* the one at 1:35 without pre-rendering and storing in tons of emulated RAM...??????!!!

@NotATube:
This is for real, the video is captured from my VIC-20 w. 16kb expansion running the demo.
Nothing is prerendered, everything is realtime.
As you say the VIC is character based, but it is possible to redirect the char-definitions from ROM to RAM, making it possible to draw just about anything.
