The 8-bit arcade games produced in the Golden Age of video games (the late 1970s to early 1980s) each had distinct designs and capabilities. We'll learn how to program them using the C programming language to compile code for the Z80 CPU.
The following arcade platforms are covered:
* Midway 8080 (Space Invaders)
* VIC Dual (Carnival)
* Galaxian/Scramble (Namco)
* Atari Color Vector
* Williams (Defender, Robotron)
We'll describe how to create video and sound for each platform, and make some simple games. Use the online 8bitworkshop.com IDE to compile your C programs and play them right in the browser!
