I have uploaded a new version of the game that you can try to compile on your c64. I have added constants for the screen width that you need to set. Let me know if you get it to run.

New Update Released!
We’ve just rolled out a fresh update with a couple of improvements to make the game better:
New Settings Menu You can now access a settings menu to customize your experience more easily.
More Colorful Visuals The game has been updated with brighter, more vibrant colors to make everything feel more lively and fun.
Thanks for playing and supporting the game! More updates coming soon
Download the latest version here: https://andre4s.itch.io/eremit-c64
Eremit is a Peg Solitaire single-player puzzle game played on a board with holes and pegs. The goal is to remove pegs by jumping one peg over another into an empty hole, similar to checkers. The jumped peg is removed from the board. Moves are allowed only horizontally or vertically, not diagonally. You continue making jumps until no more moves are possible. The challenge is to finish the game with as few pegs left as possible—ideally just one.
Version 1.3 – Performance Update
We’re excited to release Version 1.3 of the game!
This update is a 1:1 port of Version 1.2, meaning the gameplay, features, and overall experience remain exactly the same. However, under the hood, major technical improvements have been made.
The game has now been fully ported to Vision Basic, allowing it to be compiled directly into a binary executable. This transition significantly improves performance across the board.
What This Means for You
-
Faster execution
-
Smoother gameplay
-
Improved overall responsiveness
-
Better system-level efficiency
While you won’t see visible gameplay changes in this version, you should definitely feel the difference in performance.

Experience the ultimate challenge with this classic snake game for your C64 home computer. Featuring a twist that renders it almost unplayable (no, we're not kidding), this game pushes your skills to the limit. With lightning-fast gameplay, a minimalistic monochrome design, and hair-pulling frustration, it's unlike any other snake game you've encountered. Prepare for a battle against yourself as every point becomes a struggle. And just when you think you've started, it's already over. With support for multiple modes and a high-score table to track your agonizing achievements, this game will push you to the edge.
Are you ready for the most maddening snake game of all time?
itch.io Community » General » Release Announcements · Created a new topic Joystick Tester: A Handy Tool for Evaluating Joysticks on C64
This is a small tool I created some time ago primarily to learn assembly programming for the C64 home computer. It has been sitting on my hard drive for several years, and now I've decided to upload it to itch.io. Perhaps someone will find it useful.
I've encountered numerous issues with my joysticks, which led me to rely heavily on this tool following my attempts to service them.
