About

In recognition of the 40th anniversary of VIC20 in 1980, I had a mission to port/translate twenty type-in games from the VIC20 to the C64.   I figured... being 2020, 20 VIC20 games. Why not? How difficult could it be? Why didn't anyone else think of that?!  

I tried to keep the gameplay as close to the original as possible to keep in with the 22x23 size of the screen.  With this in mind, the selection criteria of the games for this collection was aimed at more arcade-style platformers and avoiding text-adventure.

However, during the lockdown period  and this "human malware" problem, as we all had more time at home, and somehow got a bit carried away... and made a few more than what I ever imagined...    

The VIC20 to C64 ported collection consists of 76 games and only has 9 blocks free left on the D64 file.  This is part 1 which only *ports* the VIC20 games to the C64.  

To see part 2 collection which *enhances* these games for full-screen C64 game play, please click here.   

If the original game was not in English, I translated the instructions and on-screen text and prompts. 

These are far from a perfectly ported game, but I like to share these with the C64 community. I hope you enjoy this collection just as much as I put the time and effort involved in this.
