Omegan Trial & Reaction 1K
(Sep, 2002). These two games was my contribution to the 2002 1K Minigame compo. A competition to write the best game with a file size of 1024 bytes or less for a 8 bit computer. Here are the short descriptions:
The Omegan Trial
The Omegan system is famous for its way of training its warriors using android controlled fighters (code named "Omega Race"). However - first the cadets have to go through the "Omegan Trial". For any VIC20 (unexpanded, expanded, PAL or NTSC). It’s 100% Basic and written on a real VIC20.Download: OmeganTrial.zip

VIC20 emulation
VICE is a good VIC20 emulator that also can emulate C64, C128, PET and CBM2. You can download it from this page.6561-101.vpl.txt gives you better (more realistic) colors in VICE. Select it in the menu Settings/Video Settings.../Advanced. Mark "External palette" and select the file. Then save the settings as default. (Settings/Save current settings)
The easiest way to run a program in VICE is to select the menu File/Autostart disk/tape image... (the first choice in the first menu) and select the file to run.
