Getting a timeout on that site Robert.

The C64 game, Orbix, has been released.  Read more about it at

https://fleischgemuese.itch.io/orbix

As it says on the website, speed is doubled when used on a C128, resulting in smoother gameplay, and there is better deletion handling.

Oh nice - and yes, it's odd that a chess game never existed - it's usually one of the first programs on any machine or OS.

Wrote this awhile back.  Still some bugs but i was kinda surprised that no one had done it yet:

There are no Commodore-specific conventions in the Midwest.  However, there is the annual Vintage Computer Festival Midwest which has exhibits of Commodore and Amiga computers.  https://vcfed.org/events/otherevents/vintage-computer-festival-midwest/

Ray still manufactures his power supplies and video cables.  https://portcommodore.com/rcarlsen/customPS.html  In fact, I bought a VIC-20CR/C64 mini power supply and a custom a/v cable from him today when I visited his house.

I thought Ray had retired from working on C= hardware.
