Product Details
- Master the legendary Commodore 64 hardware with the power and clarity of the C language.Have you always dreamed of programming a game for the C64 but found Assembly to be an intimidating barrier? Commodore 64 Game Programming in C is the definitive guide that bridges the gap between modern software engineering and 1980s 8-bit architecture.Stefano Coppi, an electronic engineer and author of Amiga Assembly Game Programming, leads you through a rigorous yet accessible technical journey. You will learn to design a professional-quality Shoot 'em Up (inspired by classics like R-Type) using the Oscar64 compiler, leveraging the advantages of C without sacrificing bare-metal performance.What you will master in this book:Advanced Graphical Architecture: Hardware Sprite management, fluid animations, and Sprite Multiplexing techniques to display more than 8 objects simultaneously.Worlds in Motion: Implementation of fine scrolling, Tilemap management, and Custom Charset creation for breathtaking backgrounds.VIC-II Mastery: Expert use of Raster IRQs to handle screen splits, vertical scrolling, and the legendary parallax scrolling.Logic and Collisions: Developing Enemy AI and collision systems optimized for fast-paced action.Sound Engineering: Seamless integration of music and sound effects by harnessing the full potential of the SID chip.Why choose this manual:Modern Approach: Written for programmers who want to use current tools (C language, VS Code, Oscar64) on vintage hardware.Focus on Quality: This is not a simple tutorial, but an engineering manual for creating games that look and feel like commercial-grade productions.Practical and Comprehensive: Includes ready-to-use code examples and the logical explanation behind every hardware register.Prerequisites: A solid understanding of C programming is required. This book does not teach the C language itself, but rather how to use C to dominate the Commodore 64.Stop playing the classics and start writing them.
