They're the stock weapons used by robots when enacting Robotic Liberation.
The sezures have never been so powerful!

Demosceners (at least the PWP ones) seem to be fond of rotating pseudo3D cubes...

now the cubes are taking over the world D: and since cubes don't talk, there is no voice XD

The vic-20 has an "ancient" feel to it, that is quite distinctive. I mean c-64 is king, but vic-20 is special in its own right as well.

Nope, one cannot free up too much space.
Computer has only 5k ram, plus 512 half-bytes (!) of color ram.
Consider that 1k is taken for HW reasons - 1 page scratch-registers, 1 stack, 2 for display area. So system Kernal only uses 0.5K extra. You cannot quite rid of more than half of that either, since you need disk access working during the demo.

My bet would be not to use an assembler, but only a machine language monitor. That snugly fits into a 3k catridge memory hole, without disrupting the adressing of the rest. Add more memory than that and you have a TOTALLY different computer.

yup... I can imagine it would be quite hard to dev on a real VIC20.. mostly because you'd need some RAM for the code too.. although you could always use an assembler that makes use of a memory expansion to store the code + assembler. :_)
fuck however invented 1+megs of ram.... I mean it.... they killed inventiveness.

@OBSysteme 5k of the VIC20 already is huge when you compare it to the whooping 256 byte (!) of the Atari 2600 ;) But yeah, VIC20 rules.
